Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

While both sides offer stunning Alpine vistas, the Right Side provides superior views of the Adriatic coastline's turquoise waters and the iconic landing approach over the Ionian Sea.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🏰

Rhine Valley

Early flight views of the winding Rhine River and the forested hills of central Germany.

🏔️

Central Alps

Panoramic views of the highest peaks in Europe, often passing near the Zugspitze or the Dolomites.

🏝️

Dalmatian Archipelago

A spectacular sequence of Croatian islands scattered like jewels across the deep blue Adriatic Sea.

🌊

Ionian Sea Approach

A low-altitude flight over crystal clear waters before touching down on the narrow runway.

⛪

Pontikonisi

The famous 'Mouse Island' and the Vlacherna Monastery are visible just seconds before wheels down.

The right side is essential for the world-famous approach into Corfu (CFU). If the plane lands from the south (Runway 34), you will get a perfect view of Mouse Island and the Kanoni peninsula. Choose an afternoon flight for the best lighting over the Adriatic islands.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🏔️

High Tauern Alps

Breathtaking views of the eastern Austrian Alps, including jagged snow-capped peaks and glacial valleys.

⛰️

Dinaric Alps

The rugged, limestone mountain ranges stretching across Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro.

🏖️

Albanian Riviera

The dramatic meeting of high mountains and the turquoise Ionian Sea along the southern Albanian coast.

🏰

Corfu Town

Aerial views of the Old Fortress and the UNESCO-listed historic center during the final descent.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the glare of the southern sun. This side is particularly rewarding for seeing the stark contrast between the Balkan mountains and the sea as you cross the Albanian border into Greek airspace.
