High Tatras
The snow-capped peaks of the Carpathian Mountains visible while crossing the border of Ukraine and Slovakia.
Rhine Valley
Aerial views of the iconic German river, historic castles, and the dense forests of the Rhineland.
Champagne Vineyards
The meticulously organized patterns of the famous French vineyards as the flight approaches the Paris basin.
Munich & Bavarian Alps
On clear days, the distant silhouette of the Alps frames the southern German cityscape.
For the best mountain views, choose a seat mid-cabin or behind the wing to keep the engine out of your photos. During winter morning flights, the low sun provides excellent contrast on the Carpathian slopes. Expect the best mountain views approximately 50-70 minutes after departure from Kiev.
