Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The Left Side is superior for this route because it offers a direct view of the spectacular Taurus Mountains in Turkey and the iconic Tel Aviv skyline during the final approach into Ben Gurion Airport.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

High Tatra Mountains

Shortly after takeoff, view the jagged granite peaks and glacial lakes marking the border between Poland and Slovakia.

🏙️

Bucharest Surroundings

As the flight crosses Romania, look for the sprawling urban landscape of the capital city and the Wallachian Plain.

⛰️

Taurus Mountains

A major highlight featuring dramatic, often snow-capped limestone peaks as you traverse southern Turkey toward the Mediterranean.

🌊

Turkish Riviera

The transition from the rugged mountains to the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean coast near Antalya.

🏖️

Tel Aviv Skyline

During the standard approach (usually from the west), this side offers an unobstructed view of the Mediterranean coastline and Tel Aviv's skyscrapers.

Book a window seat in front of the wing for the best views of the Taurus Mountains. For morning flights, this side will be in the shade, providing better lighting for photography. During the final descent, watch for the distinct curve of the Jaffa coastline.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
💧

Danube River

Follow the winding blue path of the Danube as it cuts through the Hungarian and Serbian landscapes.

🌄

Balkan Mountains

Views of the rugged ridges of Bulgaria and the interior of the Balkan Peninsula.

🏝️

Island of Cyprus

On clear days, the entire southern coastline of Cyprus is visible as you fly south over the Mediterranean Sea.

🌅

Mediterranean Horizon

Ideal for sunset flights, offering vast golden hour views over the open sea before reaching the Israeli coast.

The right side is perfect for late afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over the Mediterranean. Keep an eye out for the island of Cyprus roughly 30-40 minutes before landing. Note that this side may face harsh sunlight on morning departures from Katowice.
