Panoramic views of the Italian coast, with distant glimpses of the Tiber River and the outskirts of Rome.
Central Swiss Alps
Dramatic flyover of the Bernese Oberland, often featuring the iconic Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks.
Lake Lucerne
The intricate, fjord-like shape of this Swiss lake surrounded by steep mountain massifs.
Upper Middle Rhine Valley
The UNESCO-listed gorge featuring steep vineyards and numerous medieval hilltop castles near Koblenz.
Cologne Cathedral

Book an 'A' window seat for the best perspective. Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you, perfectly illuminating the Alps and the Rhine Gorge. During winter, look for the stark contrast of snow-covered peaks against the deep blue of the Alpine lakes.
