Our Recommendation

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers an unbeatable vantage point for the Santorini Caldera upon departure and a stunning aerial view of the Athenian Riviera and Cape Sounion during the transit north.

Left Side Highlights
8.9
🌋

Santorini Caldera

Unmatched views of the volcanic crater and the white-washed cliffs of Oia immediately after takeoff.

🏛️

Cape Sounion

Look for the ancient Temple of Poseidon perched on the southern tip of the Attica peninsula.

🏖️

West Cyclades

Bird's-eye views of the islands of Ios, Sikinos, and the rugged coastline of Serifos.

🏙️

Athenian Riviera

Clear views of the Saronic Gulf coastline and the sprawling urban landscape of Athens to the west.

🚢

Pagasetic Gulf

On final approach, enjoy views of the deep blue waters and the coastal villages of Magnesia.

For the best experience, book a window seat behind the wing to avoid engine heat haze. Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you, perfectly illuminating the Santorini cliffs and the Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion. Keep your camera ready within the first 5 minutes of takeoff for the Caldera shot.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🏝️

Central Cyclades

Stunning vistas of Naxos, Paros, and the smaller islets scattered across the Aegean.

🏔️

Mount Dirfi

The highest peak on Evia Island, often snow-capped in winter, dominates the eastern horizon.

🌲

Mount Pelion

The lush, mythological 'Mountain of Centaurs' visible as you descend toward Nea Anchialos.

🌊

Aegean Sea

Expansive views of the deep blue sea and the scattered ferry routes connecting the islands.

⚓

Volos Port

A clear view of the bustling harbor and the city of Volos nestled at the foot of the mountains.

The right side is perfect for capturing the vastness of the Aegean. If flying in the late afternoon, the 'Golden Hour' provides a warm glow over the Pelion mountains and the island of Evia. This side typically offers better views of the larger islands like Naxos and Tinos in the distance.
