Right Side Highlights
8.5
๐Ÿ—ผ

London & South East

Depending on the ATC routing, you may see the distant sprawl of London and the Thames Estuary to the south.

๐Ÿ”๏ธ

Central Swiss Alps

The highlight of the trip, offering stunning views of snow-capped peaks like the Eiger and Jungfrau.

๐Ÿ–๏ธ

Adriatic Glimpses

Views looking out toward the Venetian Lagoon and the turquoise waters of the northern Adriatic Sea.

๐Ÿ๏ธ

Aegean Coast

The jagged coastline of western Turkey and distant Greek islands become visible during the cruise-to-descent transition.

๐Ÿšค

Antalya Bay

A magnificent view of the Mediterranean coastline, the city's harbor, and the Konyaaltฤฑ Beach area on final approach.

The right side is unbeatable for Alpine scenery, which usually appears 90-110 minutes after takeoff. On the approach to AYT, this side typically provides a stunning view of the Mediterranean shoreline. Note that on midday flights, the sun will be on this side, so window shades may be needed intermittently.

๐Ÿ™๏ธ

Brussels & Benelux

The Danube River

Follow the winding path of Europe's second-longest river as it flows through the Balkan plains.

North Taurus Range

Dramatic limestone peaks and deep canyons as the aircraft begins its descent into the Antalya province.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight glare. It offers the best views of the continental interior and the winding Danube. Keep an eye out for the Balkan mountain ranges which are particularly beautiful during the winter months when snow-covered.
