LUX → RHO
Which side of the plane to sit from Luxembourg-Findel International Airport (Luxemburg) to Diagoras Airport (Rhodos)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior panoramic experience, featuring the most dramatic section of the Alps, the stunning Croatian coastline, and a flight path directly over the Aegean's most famous island chains before arriving at Rhodes.
Search flights from LUX to RHO
Swiss and Italian Alps
Spectacular views of snow-capped peaks including the Matterhorn and the Bernese Oberland region.
Dalmatian Archipelago
A breathtaking sequence of thousands of Croatian islands stretching along the crystal-clear Adriatic Sea.
The Cyclades
Iconic views of islands like Mykonos, Naxos, and sometimes Santorini as the flight traverses the heart of the Aegean.
Athens and Saronic Gulf
On clear days, the urban sprawl of Athens and the surrounding islands are visible to the west.
Dodecanese Approach
Stunning vistas of Kos, Tilos, and Symi islands during the descent into Diagoras Airport.
The right side is the 'vacation side.' For mid-day flights, ensure you have a window shade as the sun will be on this side. During the final approach to RHO, you often get a perfect view of the Rhodes Old Town and the northern tip of the island if the wind requires a northern landing.

Tyrolean Alps
Aerial views of the jagged Austrian peaks and the lush Inn Valley shortly after reaching cruising altitude.
Belgrade and the Danube
On many flight paths, the Serbian capital and the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers are visible.
Mount Olympus
The highest peak in Greece, often poking through the clouds as you cross the mainland toward the Aegean.
Halkidiki Peninsulas
The 'three fingers' of the Chalkidiki region extending into the deep blue Northern Aegean Sea.
Turkish Riviera
As the plane turns for its final approach into Rhodes, the rugged coastline of Marmaris and Datça becomes clearly visible.
Sit on the left if you prefer views of the Balkan interior and the high Greek peaks. Morning flights on this side avoid the direct sun, providing better conditions for photography of the Turkish coastline during the descent into Rhodes.
