Our Recommendation
8.7

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior view of the dramatic Balkan coastline and the rugged mountains of Albania during the descent, complemented by a stunning crossing of the Eastern Austrian Alps.

Left Side Highlights
8.7
🌲

Teutoburg Forest

Low mountain range in North Rhine-Westphalia visible shortly after departure from FMO.

🏔️

Tyrolean Alps

Spectacular views of the snow-capped peaks and deep glacial valleys of western Austria.

🇭🇷

Dalmatian Archipelago

The intricate pattern of hundreds of Croatian islands set against the deep blue Adriatic Sea.

⛰️

Albanian Highlands

The dramatic Accursed Mountains and the rugged, untouched coastline of the Balkan Peninsula.

🇬🇷

Epirus Mountains

The lush green ridges of mainland Greece as the aircraft aligns for the final approach.

The left side is optimal for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare while receiving the best light on the Balkan coastline. During the final 20 minutes, keep an eye out for the historic city of Butrint just across the water in Albania.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🏙️

Hessian Highlands

Rolling hills and the urban clusters of central Germany visible as the flight heads south.

🏔️

The Dolomites

The iconic jagged limestone peaks of the Italian Alps visible in the distance to the southwest.

🛶

Venetian Lagoon

On exceptionally clear days, the distinct outline of the Venetian coast can be spotted across the Adriatic.

🌊

Adriatic Horizon

Expansive views of the open sea providing a sense of the vast distance between Italy and the Balkans.

🏝️

Corfu's West Coast

Excellent views of the island's rocky cliffs and turquoise bays like Paleokastritsa during the descent.

Choose the right side for late afternoon or evening flights to enjoy a sunset over the Ionian Sea. This side also provides the best perspective of the island of Corfu itself if the flight approaches from the north.
