Balearic Exit
Stunning turquoise waters and the north coast of Menorca immediately after takeoff.
The Alps
Panoramic views of the snow-capped Swiss and French Alps visible on the eastern horizon.
The Black Forest
Dense, dark green mountain ranges as the flight enters German airspace.
Middle Rhine
The winding Rhine river featuring steep vineyards and numerous historic hilltop castles.
Frankfurt Skyline
The 'Mainhattan' skyscrapers are often visible if the route tracks slightly east.
Port of Hamburg

Choose the right side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. On clear days, even a route over central France allows for distant but spectacular views of Mont Blanc. During the landing in Hamburg, this side often sees the Alster Lake and city center.
