LUX β KGS
Which side of the plane to sit from Luxembourg-Findel International Airport (Luxemburg) to Kos Airport (Kos)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an unparalleled panoramic view of the Adriatic coast, the rugged Dalmatian islands, and the iconic white-washed archipelagos of the Aegean Sea.
High Alps
A distant but majestic view of the Swiss and Italian Alps, including the silhouette of Mont Blanc.
Dalmatian Coast
The stunning Croatian coastline featuring thousands of islands like Hvar, BraΔ, and KorΔula.
Dubrovnik
The terracotta roofs and ancient stone walls of the 'Pearl of the Adriatic' visible from high altitude.
Gulf of Corinth
The narrow strip of water and the Rio-Antirrio bridge connecting the Peloponnese to mainland Greece.
Cyclades Archipelago
Fly over the world-famous islands of Mykonos, Naxos, and the volcanic rim of Santorini.
Turkish Coastline
On final approach, see the rugged cliffs of the Bodrum peninsula across the narrow strait from Kos.
The right side is the 'money side' for this route. It tracks the most beautiful coastline in Europe. Avoid this side on very late afternoon flights if you are sensitive to direct sunlight, but it is perfect for photography during the golden hour. Keep your camera ready as you pass over the Croatian islands for some of the best aerial island photography possible.
Austrian Alps
Breathtaking views of the Hohe Tauern national park and the snow-capped Grossglockner peak.
Bavarian Plateau
The green landscapes of Southern Germany and the sparkling lakes near the city of Munich.
Mount Olympus
The mythical home of the gods, rising sharply from the Thermaic Gulf in Northern Greece.
Sporades Islands
Dense pine forests meeting the turquoise waters of Skopelos and Alonissos.
Aegean Crossing
Deep indigo waters dotted with remote islets as the plane begins its descent into the Dodecanese.
Sit on the left for early morning flights to witness a spectacular sunrise over the Balkan mountains. This side provides the best view of the Greek mainland's mountainous interior and the historical peak of Mount Olympus. During winter, the snow coverage on the Austrian Alps is more prominent from this angle.
