Aegean Sea Vista
Expansive views of the North Aegean islands like Lemnos shortly after departure.
Mount Olympus
The legendary home of the gods is visible south of Thessaloniki, standing as the highest peak in Greece.
Dinaric Alps
Dramatic karst landscapes and rugged mountain ridges stretching across Bosnia and Croatia.
Austrian High Alps
Snow-capped vistas of the Hohe Tauern range as the flight crosses into central Europe.
Lake Chiemsee
A beautiful view of Bavaria's largest lake, often seen during the initial descent into Munich.
For the best experience, choose a window seat on the left to capture Mount Olympus roughly 25 minutes after takeoff. On morning flights, the sun will be behind you, providing excellent lighting for photos of the Alpine peaks. Look for the distinct turquoise waters of Chiemsee as the landing gear may deploy.
