KRKPFO

Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers the most dramatic mountain scenery, including a close-up of the High Tatras immediately after takeoff and a spectacular perspective of the Turkish coast and the Troodos Mountains during the descent into Cyprus.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

High Tatras

Dramatic views of the highest range in the Carpathian Mountains shortly after departing Krakow.

🏙️

Budapest

Aerial perspective of the Danube River winding through the Hungarian capital.

⛰️

Balkan Mountains

Rugged, rolling terrain as the flight crosses over Bulgaria and towards the Mediterranean.

🌊

Turkish Riviera

Stunning turquoise waters and jagged coastline near Marmaris and Fethiye as you leave mainland Asia Minor.

🇨🇾

Troodos Massif

The forested peaks of Cyprus's interior visible during the final descent into Paphos.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the southern sun. Watch closely in the first 15 minutes for the peaks of Zakopane. During the descent, the left side usually faces the island's interior, offering views of the Kyrenia range in the distance.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🌊

Lake Balaton

The vast expanse of Central Europe's largest freshwater lake visible over Hungary.

🏰

Belgrade

The confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers at the heart of the Serbian capital.

🏝️

Aegean Islands

Clear views of the Greek Dodecanese islands, including Rhodes, shimmering in the Mediterranean.

🌅

Paphos Coastline

Views of the crystal-clear waters and rocky coves as the plane aligns with the runway.

🗿

Aphrodite's Rock

The famous sea stack and birthplace of the goddess, often visible just before touchdown.

The right side is ideal for afternoon or sunset flights, as the sun sets over the Mediterranean Sea. Keep your camera ready during the final 10 minutes of the flight for a panoramic view of the Paphos Archaeological Park and the lighthouse.
