Which side of the plane to sit from Kopitnari Airport (Kutaisi) to Vilnius International Airport (Vilnius)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side offers an unparalleled panoramic view of the Greater Caucasus Mountains immediately after takeoff and a superior view of Vilnius's historic center upon approach.
Greater Caucasus Range
Dramatic views of some of Europe's highest peaks, including the massive glaciers of the central range near the Georgian border.
Eastern Carpathians
The dramatic forested arc of the Romanian mountains, offering high-contrast terrain views during mid-flight.
Bialowieza Forest
Views of one of the last and largest remaining parts of the immense primeval forest that once stretched across Europe.
Vilnius Cityscape
A classic view of the red-tiled roofs, the Gediminas Tower, and the baroque churches of Vilnius Old Town during the landing sequence.
The right side is a must for the first 20 minutes of the flight to see the Caucasus. For the best photography of Vilnius Old Town, morning flights offer the most favorable light angles on this side.
Black Sea Coast
Aerial views of the Georgian coastline and the vast deep blue waters of the Black Sea shortly after departure.
Transylvanian Alps
The rugged peaks of the Southern Carpathian Mountains visible as the flight crosses into European airspace.
Lublin Highlands
The rolling hills and urban landscape of eastern Poland as the aircraft begins its northward turn.
Dzūkija Forests
The dense, lush pine forests of southern Lithuania appearing as the plane prepares for its final descent.
Choose the left side for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Black Sea. This side also provides a better view of the Vistula River basin if the flight path tracks further west through Poland.
