FRA β CFU
Which side of the plane to sit from Frankfurt am Main Airport (Frankfurt) to Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport (Kerkyra/corfu)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers an unparalleled view of the Adriatic Sea's turquoise waters and the stunning archipelago of the Dalmatian Coast, culminating in a beautiful approach over Corfu's historic Old Town.
Central Alpine Range
Stunning vistas of the high-altitude glaciers and deep valleys of the Austrian Tyrol region.
Dalmatian Archipelago
A spectacular bird's-eye view of Croatia's thousand islands, including Hvar and BraΔ.
Adriatic Coastline
The shimmering coastline where the deep blue sea meets the white limestone cliffs of the Balkans.
Corfu Old Fortress
A panoramic view of the UNESCO-listed Venetian fortifications and the red-roofed Old Town upon arrival.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset reflecting off the Adriatic Sea. For the best views of the Croatian islands, ensure you have a window seat away from the wing. This side typically offers the most scenic descent directly past Corfu Town if landing on Runway 34.
Frankfurt Skyline
A striking view of Germany's financial district and the Main River immediately after takeoff.
Eastern Alps
Dense clusters of snow-capped peaks across the Austrian and Slovenian borders.
Dinaric Alps
The rugged, limestone mountain ranges of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro.
Mouse Island
The iconic Pontikonisi islet and Vlacherna Monastery visible just before touchdown.
Opt for the left side for morning departures to have the sun behind you, illuminating the alpine peaks. During the final descent, look for the contrast between the high Albanian mountains and the Greek shoreline.
