White Cliffs of Dover
A stunning perspective of the iconic chalk cliffs and the busy English Channel shipping lanes.
The Ardennes
Dense, rolling forest landscapes spanning across Belgium, Luxembourg, and Germany.
The Austrian Alps
Spectacular long-range views of the jagged, snow-capped peaks of the Northern Limestone Alps.
Lake Balaton
The largest lake in Central Europe, easily recognizable by its unique turquoise color and elongated shape.
The Danube River
Aerial views of the Danube as it meanders through Hungary and forms the border between Serbia and Romania.
The right side is the 'scenic side' for the Alps and Lake Balaton. For the best photography, choose a seat behind the wing to capture the engine against the mountain backdrop. Mid-day flights provide the best lighting for the turquoise waters of Balaton.

Greater London and Thames Estuary
Aerial views of the sprawling London metropolis and the industrial landscape of the Thames Estuary during climb-out.
Belgian Coastline
Clear views of the busy port of Zeebrugge and the sandy beaches of the North Sea coast.
Main River Valley
The winding Main River and the financial skyscrapers of Frankfurt are often visible to the north.
Transylvanian Alps
Dramatic views of the FΔgΔraΘ Mountains and the rugged Southern Carpathian ridges during the descent into Romania.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct solar glare. This side is particularly rewarding during the final 30 minutes of flight, as the aircraft often skirts the northern edge of the Carpathian Mountains before turning south toward Craiova.
