Which side of the plane to sit from Kos Airport (Kos) to Berlin-Schönefeld Airport (Berlin)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Turkish coastline immediately after takeoff, followed by a spectacular vantage point of Budapest and the meandering Danube River mid-flight.
Bodrum Peninsula
Stunning views of the Turkish coastline and the turquoise waters of the Gökova Gulf immediately after leaving Kos.
Thessaloniki Gulf
A sweeping view of Greece's second-largest city and its busy port along the Thermaic Gulf.
Budapest Panorama
One of the best aerial views in Europe, featuring the Hungarian Parliament and the bridges of the Danube.
Danube Bend
Watch the river curve dramatically through the hills of northern Hungary near Visegrád.
Spreewald Reserve
The intricate network of canals and dense forests south of Berlin as you begin the final descent into the city.
The right side is ideal for morning flights, providing excellent lighting for the Turkish coast. Pay close attention approximately 100-120 minutes into the flight for a bird's-eye view of Budapest, which is typically passed on the right.
Cyclades Islands
Aerial views of the deep blue Aegean and the scattered white architecture of islands like Amorgos and Naxos shortly after departure.
Mount Olympus
The highest mountain in Greece is often visible as you cross the mainland, showing its rugged, snow-capped peaks in winter.
Belgrade Cityscape
Clear views of the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers at the heart of the Serbian capital.
Prague
On clear days, the spires and red roofs of the Czech capital are visible as the flight enters German airspace.
Saxon Switzerland
Dramatic sandstone mountains and rock formations near the German-Czech border.
Choose the left side for afternoon flights to avoid direct glare from the sun while enjoying a sunset over the Balkan Peninsula. Keep your camera ready about 45 minutes after takeoff for the best views of the Greek mainland mountains.
