MUC β PVK
Which side of the plane to sit from Munich Airport (Munich) to Aktion National Airport (Preveza)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior panoramic experience, featuring the stunning turquoise waters of the Adriatic and Ionian Seas, the intricate Dalmatian coastline, and a perfect view of the Ionian islands during the final descent.
Dalmatian Coast
A breathtaking view of Croatia's thousand islands, including Hvar and KorΔula, surrounded by crystal-clear water.
Dubrovnik
On clear days, the red-roofed Old Town of Dubrovnik is visible against the deep blue of the Adriatic.
Corfu
The emerald-green island of Corfu appears on the right as the plane enters Greek airspace.
Lefkada Bridge
The floating bridge connecting Lefkada to the mainland is visible during the final moments of flight.
Ionian Beaches
The famous white cliffs and turquoise waters of Lefkada's west coast are visible during the landing pattern.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun will be behind or above the plane, illuminating the coastline perfectly. During the final approach into PVK, the right side often catches a glimpse of the Aktion castle and the entrance to the Preveza undersea tunnel.
Zillertal Alps
Spectacular views of the snow-capped peaks of the Austrian Tyrol shortly after reaching cruising altitude.
Dolomites
The jagged limestone peaks of the Italian Dolomites are visible as the flight crosses into southern Europe.
Lake Skadar
The largest lake in the Balkan Peninsula, straddling the border of Montenegro and Albania.
Pindus Mountains
The rugged 'Spine of Greece' provides a dramatic landscape of deep gorges and dense forests before the descent.
Ambracian Gulf
A protected wetland area teeming with birdlife visible just as the plane aligns for the runway at PVK.
Sit on the left if you prefer inland mountain landscapes. Morning flights will experience direct sunlight on this side, which can make photography difficult. Watch for the stark transition from the lush Alps to the arid Balkan interior.
