HAJ → CFU
Which side of the plane to sit from Hannover Airport (Hannover) to Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport (Kerkyra/corfu)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers an unparalleled panorama of the Adriatic coastline and the majestic transition from the high Alps to the turquoise waters of the Ionian Sea.
Central Alps
Stunning vistas of the snow-capped Austrian and Italian Alps shortly after crossing the Danube.
Dalmatian Archipelago
A breathtaking sequence of hundreds of Croatian islands set against the deep blue Adriatic Sea.
Dubrovnik
Depending on the exact flight path, you may spot the historic walled city of Dubrovnik from high altitude.
Ionian Sea Entry
The transition from the narrow Adriatic to the vast Ionian Sea as you pass the Otranto Strait.
Corfu Old Town
On final approach to Runway 34, get a bird's-eye view of the UNESCO-listed Old Town and the Old Fortress.
The right side is the 'money side' for this route. For the best experience, choose a seat behind the wing to capture the Croatian islands and the famous Corfu lagoon approach. Afternoon flights provide excellent lighting for photography of the coastline, but be prepared for some sun glare. The approach into CFU is often low over the water, providing incredible views of the Pontikonisi (Mouse Island) just before touchdown.
Harz Mountains
Shortly after takeoff, view the northernmost mountain range in Germany, featuring the Brocken peak.
Hohe Tauern
Spectacular views of the Austrian Alps' highest peaks, including the Grossglockner massif.
Dinaric Alps
The rugged, forested interior of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro with deep river canyons.
Epirus Region
The dramatic, craggy limestone peaks of the Pindus Mountains on the Greek mainland.
The left side is preferable for morning flights to avoid the direct southern sun. Look for the contrast between the green Balkan interior and the grey limestone peaks of the Pindus range as you begin your descent into Greek airspace.
