Kamnik-Savinja Alps
Immediately after takeoff from LJU, witness the jagged limestone peaks and deep glacial valleys of northern Slovenia.
Karawanks Range
The natural border between Slovenia and Austria, featuring steep slopes and the prominent Hochstuhl peak.
Schneeberg Massif
Lower Austria's highest mountain, often capped with snow, standing out as a massive limestone giant on the approach.
Vienna Woods
The green lung of Vienna, featuring dense beech and oak forests that transition into the city's outskirts.
Vienna Cityscape
Depending on the wind-directed landing pattern, views of the Danube Tower and the city's historic center.
Book a window seat ahead of the wing for unobstructed views of the alpine transitions. Morning flights are ideal as the sun illuminates the mountain faces from the east. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff for the most dramatic mountain vistas.

Savinja River Valley
Lush green corridors and winding river bends through the heart of the Slovenian countryside.
Styrian Vineyards
The rolling hills of southern Austria, famous for white wine production and picturesque estates.
Lake Neusiedl
Visible in the distance to the east, this vast steppe lake marks the beginning of the Pannonian Plain.
Marchfeld Plain
The expansive agricultural flatlands northeast of Vienna, visible just before touchdown at Schwechat.
Sit on the right for a softer landscape of rolling hills and vineyards. This side is particularly beautiful during late afternoon flights when the 'Golden Hour' light reflects off the distant Lake Neusiedl and the Pannonian Basin.
