Our Recommendation
9.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior experience, primarily due to the breathtaking and iconic view of Mount Ararat during the final approach into Yerevan, alongside views of the Italian volcanic landscape.

Right Side Highlights
9.2
🌋

Mount Vesuvius

A distant but clear view of the famous Neapolitan volcano and the Tyrrhenian coastline during the climb.

🌲

Rhodope Mountains

Ancient, densely forested peaks situated along the border regions of Bulgaria and Greece.

🌊

Pontic Mountains

The dramatic meeting point of the Black Sea and the rugged northern coastline of Turkey.

🗻

Mount Ararat

The legendary, snow-capped dormant volcano that dominates the horizon during the landing into Zvartnots.

The right side is essential for the 'money shot' of Mount Ararat. For evening arrivals, the sun sets to the west, casting a golden glow on the peaks. Sit behind the wing to ensure your view of the massive Ararat massif is not obstructed by the engine.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🏔️

Central Apennines

Dramatic limestone ridges and deep valleys of the Italian 'spine' shortly after departure from Rome.

🏖️

Dalmatian Archipelago

The intricate network of islands and turquoise waters along the Croatian coastline across the Adriatic.

⛰️

Balkan Mountains

Extensive views of the rugged Stara Planina range as the flight traverses Bulgarian airspace.

❄️

Lesser Caucasus

The rolling green highlands and snowy peaks of northern Georgia and Armenia during the descent.

Choose the left side for more diffused lighting during midday flights, which is better for photography of the Balkan mountain ranges. Keep an eye out for the transition from the blue Adriatic Sea to the dense forests of Eastern Europe.
