MANPFO

Our Recommendation
8.7

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior vantage point for the most iconic sights, including the highest peaks of the Alps and the rugged beauty of the Akamas Peninsula upon arrival in Cyprus.

Left Side Highlights
8.7
🏔️

The Swiss & Italian Alps

Breathtaking views of snow-capped peaks like the Matterhorn and Mont Blanc as the flight traverses Central Europe.

🌊

Adriatic Archipelago

Distant views of the turquoise waters and numerous islands lining the Croatian and Montenegrin coastlines.

🏛️

Greek Peloponnese

Bird's-eye view of the rugged mountains and deep inlets of southern mainland Greece.

🗾

Aegean Islands

Gliding over the scattered white-and-blue islands of the Cyclades as you head toward the Levantine Sea.

🏝️

Akamas Peninsula

A stunning view of Cyprus's westernmost tip, featuring dramatic cliffs and the Blue Lagoon during descent.

For the clearest views of the Alps, choose a morning flight when the sun is to the East (behind the plane or to the right), minimizing window glare. Seats forward of the wing are essential for unobstructed photography of the Akamas nature reserve during the final 15 minutes of flight.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🗼

Greater Paris Area

On clear days, you can spot the sprawling urban layout of the French capital shortly after crossing the Channel.

🏔️

The Dolomites

Distinguishable jagged limestone peaks of the Italian Alps visible to the south as you pass into Italy.

🌊

The Ionian Sea

Vast expanses of deep blue water as the route crosses from the 'heel' of Italy toward the Greek islands.

🏖️

Paphos Coastline

Views of the Paphos archaeological park, the harbor, and the lighthouse just before touchdown.

🌅

Mediterranean Sunset

Perfect positioning for spectacular orange and pink hues over the sea on late-afternoon departures.

The right side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Mediterranean. On approach to PFO, the right side often gets a better view of the Paphos lighthouse and harbor if the aircraft lands from the West (Runway 11).
