Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point for the iconic Bernese Alps and the spectacular coastal descent into Corfu, including views of the island's famous turquoise bays.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
🌲

Vosges Mountains

Rolling green hills of the French border region shortly after departure.

🏔️

Bernese Oberland

The legendary trio of Eiger, Monch, and Jungfrau often visible in the distance.

⛰️

Italian Apennines

The mountainous 'spine' of Italy stretching toward the southern horizon.

🏝️

Corfu West Coast

Dramatic limestone cliffs and the famous bays of Paleokastritsa.

🏛️

Corfu Old Town

A UNESCO World Heritage site with Venetian fortresses visible on final approach.

Choose the right side for the most iconic views of the Alps. On the approach to Corfu, this side typically offers the best views of the island's interior and its stunning coastline. If landing from the south (Runway 34), you will fly directly past the Kanoni peninsula and the 'Mouse Island' (Pontikonisi) just seconds before touchdown.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🏙️

Zurich & Lake Zurich

Clear views of the city and the long blue lake as you enter Swiss airspace.

🏔️

Central Swiss Alps

The high peaks of the Glarus and Lepontine Alps provide a dramatic landscape.

🏖️

Adriatic Coastline

The Italian seaside resorts near Rimini and Pesaro are visible along the coast.

⛰️

Pindus Mountains

The wild, rugged mountains of the Epirus region on the Greek mainland.

🚢

Igoumenitsa Port

The busy ferry terminal connecting Greece to Italy is visible just before the final turn.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct southern sun. This side is excellent for seeing the transition from the Italian coastline to the Greek mainland. During the approach to Runway 34, you will see the rugged coastline of the Greek mainland more clearly than the island itself.
