GRZ โ AYT
Which side of the plane to sit from Graz Airport (Graz) to Antalya International Airport (Antalya)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior visual journey, featuring the stunning contrast between the rugged Dinaric Alps, the deep blue of the Adriatic and Aegean seas, and the spectacular coastal approach into the Turkish Riviera.
Adriatic Archipelago
Breathtaking views of the numerous islands and turquoise waters along the Croatian and Montenegrin coastline.
Accursed Mountains
The dramatic, jagged peaks of the Albanian Alps and the rugged wilderness of the Dinaric range.
Chalkidiki Peninsula
The distinct three-fingered landmass of northern Greece extending into the deep blue Aegean Sea.
The Turquoise Coast
Vibrant blue waters and sandy beaches of the Turkish Riviera visible during the final banking maneuvers.
Antalya Cliffs
A stunning view of the city's unique limestone cliffs and the Old Town (Kaleici) on the final approach.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to witness the golden hour reflection on the Mediterranean. As you approach Antalya, keep your camera ready for the Dรผden Waterfalls, which can sometimes be seen cascading directly into the sea from this side depending on the landing pattern.
Styrian Foothills
Lush green rolling hills and vineyards of southern Austria immediately after departure from Graz.
Balkan Mountains
Broad views of the rugged, landlocked interior of Serbia and Bulgaria, including the Rila and Pirin massifs.
Anatolian Plateau
The high-altitude, arid landscape of central Turkey, characterized by golden plains and salt basins.
Taurus Range
Impressive limestone peaks of the northern Taurus mountains as the plane begins its descent into Antalya.
Sit on the left side for morning flights to avoid the direct southern sun glare. This side provides a more 'geological' view of the vast Eurasian landmass. Watch for the dramatic change in terrain as the green European forests give way to the more arid Turkish interior.
