🌾

Southern Steppes

Vast geometrical agricultural patterns of the fertile plains of Southern Ukraine and Moldova.

💧

Turkish Lake District

Vibrant turquoise lakes like Egirdir and Beysehir are visible during the descent phase through Anatolia.

🏘️

Antalya Cityscape

A spectacular bird's-eye view of the dense urban center, the old harbor, and the dramatic cliffs.

🏖️

Lara Coastline

Long stretches of sandy beaches and turquoise Mediterranean water just before touching down at AYT.

The right side is ideal for afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over the Mediterranean. During final approach, this side usually provides a superior view of the Antalya city center and the towering Mediterranean cliffs.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🌊

Dnieper River Delta

Watch the winding Dnieper river transition into the southern Ukrainian steppes and marshes.

⛰️

Crimean Mountains

Distinctive rocky ridges visible as the plane crosses the northern Black Sea coast.

⛴️

Black Sea Transit

A vast expanse of deep blue, often dotted with cargo ships heading toward the Bosporus Strait.

🏔️

Taurus Mountains

The rugged peaks of the Taurus range offer a sharp contrast to the blue sea during the final descent.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight glare. This side is particularly good for observing the deep shadows and textures of the Taurus mountain range during the early hours.
