Lake Eber & Akşehir
Significant wetlands and lakes visible during the cruise phase, offering a stark blue contrast to the surrounding terrain.

Unique volcanic rock formations and historical landscapes of the Phrygian Valley visible from high altitude.
Güllük Bay
Breathtaking views of the Aegean Sea's turquoise inlets and the indented coastline during the final approach.
Menteşe Mountains
Densely forested coastal mountains that provide a lush green backdrop just before touchdown at BJV.

Ankara Skyline
Panoramic views of the capital city's sprawling urban landscape immediately after takeoff from Esenboğa.
Taurus Mountain Fringes
Distal views of the rugged peaks marking the southern edge of the Central Anatolian plateau.
Muğla Valleys
Deep, narrow river valleys and high-altitude ridges as the aircraft begins its descent into the Aegean region.
The left side is best during late afternoon flights to avoid direct sunlight. Keep an eye out for the shimmering salt flats of Lake Tuz in the far distance if the flight path trends slightly southward.
