Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The right side provides a superior panoramic view of the Western Alps, the jagged Croatian coastline, and the sprawling Greek islands, finishing with a scenic sweep over the Tel Aviv beachfront during arrival.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
🗼

Parisian Basin

On clear days, the flight path often passes south of Paris, offering distant views of the French capital's layout.

🏔️

Mont Blanc

Stunning proximity to the highest peak in the Alps and the surrounding Aosta Valley on the French-Italian border.

🏖️

Dalmatian Coast

The intricate network of islands and deep blue waters along the coast of Croatia and the Adriatic Sea.

🏛️

The Cyclades

A spectacular bird's-eye view of the white-and-blue Greek islands scattered across the southern Aegean.

🏙️

Tel Aviv Shoreline

The final approach often involves a banking turn over the sea, revealing the skyscrapers and beaches of the 'White City'.

The right side is essential for sunset views on afternoon departures. Most flights into Ben Gurion approach from the west over the Mediterranean; the right side usually gets the best view of the Tel Aviv skyline during the final 180-degree turn toward the runway. Use a polarising filter on your camera to cut through the sea haze for better island photos.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🏙️

Greater London

On a southerly departure path, the left side often captures the vast urban sprawl of London and the Thames Estuary.

🏔️

Swiss Alps

Breathtaking views of the snow-capped central Swiss peaks and the glacial valleys of the Oberland region.

⛰️

Balkan Mountains

Rugged, high-altitude terrain across Serbia and Bulgaria as the flight crosses into Eastern Europe.

🌊

Northern Aegean

Glimpses of the northern Greek islands and the Chalkidiki peninsula jutting into the sea.

⚓

Haifa & Mount Carmel

As the plane enters Israeli airspace from the north, look for the terraced Bahai Gardens and the deep-water port.

Sit on the left to avoid the harshest afternoon sun when traveling southeast. This side is better for spotting the northern Israeli coastline and the Galilee region during the initial descent phase. In winter, look for the stark contrast between the snowy Alps and the dry Mediterranean landscape.
