FRA → AMM
Which side of the plane to sit from Frankfurt am Main Airport (Frankfurt) to Queen Alia International Airport (Amman)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers a more dramatic scenic progression, including a distant view of the Alps, the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean, the rugged Taurus Mountains, and a spectacular approach over the Dead Sea and Judean Desert.
The Alps
Distant but breathtaking views of the snow-capped Austrian and Swiss Alps as you traverse Southern Germany.
Turkish Riviera
The striking contrast where the turquoise Mediterranean Sea meets the jagged cliffs of the Antalya coastline.
Taurus Mountains
Soaring over the massive, limestone peaks of the Taurus range in Southern Turkey.
Cyprus
Clear views of the entire island of Cyprus, particularly the Pentadaktylos range and the Akamas Peninsula.
The Dead Sea
A world-class view of the lowest point on Earth, showing the crystalline salt formations and deep blue waters during the descent.
Sit on the right for the most iconic landmarks. During the descent into AMM, this side provides a vantage point of the Dead Sea and the lights of Jerusalem if arriving after dusk. Use a morning flight for the best sun position to highlight the Alpine and Mediterranean textures.
Rhine-Main Region
Aerial views of the dense forests and historical cities of Hesse shortly after departure from Frankfurt.
Budapest & The Danube
On a typical southeasterly heading, the Hungarian capital and the winding Danube River are often visible.
Balkan Mountain Ranges
Stunning views over the rugged peaks of the Stara Planina through Serbia and Bulgaria.
Anatolian Plateau
The vast, arid landscapes of central Turkey, featuring salt lakes and unique geological formations.
Jordan Valley North
The green contrast of the northern Jordan Valley as the flight begins its final descent into Amman.
Choose this side for softer lighting during afternoon flights to avoid the direct southern sun. Keep an eye out for the Danube River, which acts as a constant landmark across Central Europe.
