Zugspitze & Alps
Immediate views of Germany's highest peak and the rugged Bavarian Alps upon departure from Memmingen.
Adriatic Coastline
The stunning blue waters and white limestone islands of the Croatian coast are often visible in the distance.
Durmitor National Park
The deep canyons and jagged peaks of Montenegro provide a dramatic mid-flight highlight.
Sharr Mountains
Impressive snow-capped peaks along the Kosovo-Macedonia border during the final approach.
The right side is unbeatable for evening flights, offering a spectacular sunset over the Adriatic Sea. During descent, look for the rugged Sharr Mountains which often retain snow well into spring. Sit behind the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block the view of the coastline.
Book Hotels in SkopjeHohe Tauern
Panoramic views of Austria's highest mountains, including the Grossglockner, visible shortly after reaching cruise altitude.
Ljubljana Basin
A clear view of the Slovenian capital tucked between the Julian Alps and the Karawanks.
Pannonian Transition
The landscape shifts into the vast, golden plains of the northern Balkans as you cross into Serbia.
Vardar Valley
The winding Vardar River guides the descent into the Skopje basin, surrounded by rolling hills.
Choose the left side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you for better photography of the Austrian Alps. This side is particularly scenic during the first 30 minutes of the flight. Watch for the distinct change in topography from high mountains to the flat plains of the Danube basin.
