The Alps
Distant but majestic views of the snow-capped Austrian and Swiss Alps to the far south-west.
Balkan Ranges
Rugged, forested mountain terrain across Serbia and Bulgaria, showing deep valleys and remote villages.
Mediterranean Horizon
Expansive, uninterrupted views of the sea, particularly spectacular during sunset flights.
Troodos Mountains
The green heart of Cyprus, visible as the plane descends toward the southeastern coast.
Larnaca Salt Lake
The famous salt lake near the airport, which appears bright white in summer or a vibrant pink hue in winter.
The right side is unbeatable for the final approach into Larnaca, as it typically offers the best view of the Salt Lake and the city center. For evening flights, the right side captures the sunset over the Mediterranean. In winter, look for the pink tint of the salt lake, which indicates the presence of flamingos.

Prague Cityscape
Aerial views of the 'City of a Hundred Spires' and the Vltava River winding through the Czech capital.
Budapest & The Danube
A stunning perspective of the Hungarian Parliament and the wide curves of the Danube River.
Taurus Mountains
The dramatic, jagged limestone peaks of southern Turkey as the flight transitions to the Mediterranean.
Antalya Coastline
Striking turquoise waters and white sand beaches along the Turkish Riviera before heading out to sea.
Larnaca Bay
Deep blue Mediterranean views during the final banking maneuvers into Cyprus.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and get the clearest views of the Turkish coast. Keep your camera ready as you cross the Danube; the river's path is highly photogenic from 35,000 feet. On the approach to LCA, this side often sees the northern coastline of Cyprus.
