Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the majestic Alps on the southern horizon for much of the cruise and provides the best angle for spotting Lake Balaton in Hungary before the final approach.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🌊

The English Channel

Views looking south toward the Straits of Dover and the northern coast of France during the initial climb.

🌲

The Black Forest

The dense, dark evergreen canopy of southwestern Germany creates a distinct geographic texture from 35,000 feet.

🏔️

The Alpine Chain

On clear days, the jagged, snow-capped peaks of the Swiss and Austrian Alps dominate the southern horizon.

🛶

Lake Balaton

The 'Hungarian Sea' is easily identifiable by its elongated shape and unique turquoise-green color.

🚜

Pannonian Basin

Geometric patterns of Hungarian and Romanian agricultural fields during the descent into Timisoara.

The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight, which typically hits the left side on this southeasterly route. Keep your camera ready about 60-80 minutes into the flight for the best views of the Alps. This side also offers a more scenic descent into Timisoara over the western Romanian plains.

Left Side Highlights
7.4
🏙️

Greater London Suburbs

Aerial perspectives of the northern edges of London and the M25 motorway immediately after takeoff from Luton.

🚢

Port of Antwerp

Views of one of the world's largest shipping ports and the Scheldt estuary as you cross into Belgium.

🏢

Frankfurt Skyline

The high-rise financial district of Frankfurt is often visible when the flight path tracks over central Germany.

💧

The Danube River

Glances of the winding Danube River as it snakes through southern Germany and northern Austria.

🏰

Budapest Cityscape

A distant but clear view of the Hungarian capital and its iconic bridges if the route stays north of the city.

Sit on the left for better views of urban infrastructure and European city centers. For late-evening flights, this side will catch the city lights of Frankfurt, Vienna, and Budapest. During winter, look for the frost-covered plains of Eastern Europe.
