Salzkammergut Lakes
The turquoise waters of Lake Attersee and Lake Traunsee are visible as the flight crosses into Upper Austria.
Vienna
The sprawling Austrian capital and the Danube bend are clearly visible on the southern horizon midway through the journey.
Budapest
The 'Pearl of the Danube' often appears to the south, with the Parliament building and historic bridges visible from cruising altitude.
Fฤgฤraศ Mountains
The highest peaks of the Southern Carpathians provide a dramatic backdrop as the aircraft aligns for its final approach into Sibiu.
