LPL β BJV
Which side of the plane to sit from Liverpool John Lennon Airport (Liverpool) to Milas Bodrum International Airport (Bodrum)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers an exceptional view of the dramatic Adriatic coastline, the snow-capped high peaks of the Alps, and the sprawling Greek island archipelagos before landing in Bodrum.
The High Alps
Panoramic views of the highest European peaks, often including the Mont Blanc massif or the Swiss Matterhorn.
Adriatic Coastline
The stunning turquoise waters and white stone islands of the Croatian Dalmatian coast.
Ionian and Aegean Islands
A spectacular sequence of Greek islands from Corfu in the west to the Cyclades in the east.
Corinth Canal Area
Often provides a view of the Peloponnese and the narrow Isthmus of Corinth during the descent.
Bodrum Peninsula
Breathtaking views of the Turkish coast, GΓΌllΓΌk Bay, and the white-washed houses of the Bodrum region upon arrival.
The right side is significantly more scenic for coastal views. For late afternoon flights, you will experience a magnificent sunset over the Aegean Sea. Ensure you are looking out during the middle of the flight (roughly 2 hours in) for the Adriatic coast of Croatia. Keep your camera ready during the final 30 minutes for the Greek islands which appear like jewels in the deep blue sea.
Northern Alpine Slopes
Stunning views of the Bavarian and Austrian Alps as the plane traverses central Europe.
Central European Cities
Bird's-eye views of urban centers across Germany or Austria depending on the specific airway used.
Danube River
Look for the winding blue ribbon of the Danube river cutting through the plains of Eastern Europe.
Balkan Ranges
Aerial views of the rugged, forested mountains of Bulgaria and northern Greece.
Lake Bafa
On final approach, a clear view of the historic Lake Bafa and the Latmos mountains just north of Bodrum.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and glare while photographing the Alps. It is also the best side for observing the lush, mountainous interior of the Balkan Peninsula. Watch for the dramatic change from the flat European plains to the jagged peaks of the northern Alps approximately 90 minutes into the flight.
