Nile Delta
The sharp contrast where the lush green agricultural triangle meets the Mediterranean Sea.
Ionian Islands
The vibrant turquoise waters surrounding the islands of Corfu and Paxi.
Dalmatian Archipelago
Spectacular views of thousands of islands and the rugged coastline of Croatia.
Austrian Alps
Dramatic and close-up views of the snow-capped Tauern range peaks.
Hamburg Port
The massive container terminals and the winding Elbe River just before landing.
The right side is the star for this route. You get the best angle of the Adriatic archipelago and the high peaks of the Austrian Alps. For morning departures, the sun is high enough to illuminate the terrain without causing excessive glare. Keep your camera ready as you cross the Croatian coast roughly three hours into the flight.
