Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point for the dramatic crossing of the Alps shortly after departure and the stunning turquoise waters of the Adriatic and Ionian coasts. On final approach into Tel Aviv, this side typically provides a breathtaking panoramic view of the Mediterranean coastline and the Tel Aviv skyline.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🏔️

Grossglockner View

Spectacular views of Austria's highest peak and its surrounding glaciers.

🌊

Dalmatian Coastline

The intricate network of Croatian islands and the deep blue waters of the Adriatic Sea.

🏝️

Ionian Islands

Clear views of Corfu, Lefkada, and Cephalonia as the plane crosses the Greek coast.

💧

Mediterranean Expanse

Deep blue maritime vistas during the mid-flight cruise towards the Levant.

🏙️

Tel Aviv Skyline

The 'White City' skyline and the Jaffa port area during the final bank into Ben Gurion Airport.

Choose the right side for the most iconic approach into Tel Aviv; most flights approach from the sea and bank left, giving the right side a full view of the beach and skyscrapers. For evening flights, you may catch a sunset over the Mediterranean just before landing.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🏔️

Hohe Tauern National Park

Glaciated peaks and high-altitude valleys of the Austrian Alps shortly after departure.

🏙️

Salzburg & Lake District

Bird's-eye view of Mozart's birthplace and the emerald Salzkammergut lakes.

⛰️

Dinaric Alps

The rugged, limestone mountain ranges stretching across Montenegro and Albania.

🏝️

Aegean Horizons

Distant views of the Greek mainland and the scattered islands of the Aegean Sea.

🏖️

Carmel Coast

Views of Mount Carmel and the northern Israeli shoreline near Haifa during the initial descent.

Sit on the left for morning flights to minimize direct glare while viewing the Alps. This side is better for seeing the northern stretch of the Israeli coast and the city of Haifa if the approach path takes you slightly further north before turning.
