Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the sparkling Aegean Sea, the Greek islands, and a more scenic approach into Paphos along the Cypriot coastline.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
๐Ÿ™๏ธ

Central European Landscapes

A patchwork of forests and farmlands across Poland and the Czech Republic.

๐Ÿ”๏ธ

Eastern Alpine Fringe

Distant views of the snow-capped peaks of the Austrian and Slovenian Alps.

๐Ÿ๏ธ

Greek Cyclades

A stunning view of the Aegean archipelago, including potential glimpses of Mykonos and Santorini's caldera.

๐ŸŒŠ

Crete & Mediterranean

The vast expanse of the deep blue Mediterranean Sea with the silhouette of Crete to the far south.

๐Ÿ–๏ธ

Paphos Coastline

A low-altitude view of the Akamas Peninsula and the Coral Bay area just before touchdown.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid direct sunlight. It provides a more iconic 'Mediterranean' experience with views of the Greek islands. On the final approach to PFO, the right side usually offers the best view of the sea and the Paphos lighthouse area.

Left Side Highlights
7.9
๐ŸŒŠ

Baltic Sea Archipelago

Aerial views of the thousands of small islands and skerries off the coast of Sรถdermanland after takeoff.

๐Ÿ”๏ธ

Tatra Mountains

The highest range in the Carpathians, marking the border between Poland and Slovakia with sharp granite peaks.

๐Ÿ™๏ธ

Sofia & Balkan Range

Views of the Bulgarian capital and the sprawling mountain ridges that divide the Balkan Peninsula.

๐Ÿ–๏ธ

Turkish Riviera

The turquoise waters and rugged cliffs of the Lycian coast near Dalaman and Fethiye.

โ›ฐ๏ธ

Troodos Mountains

The green, pine-clad volcanic massif that forms the mountainous spine of Cyprus during the descent.

Sit on the left if you are on a morning flight and want to see the sun rising over the Baltic. It also provides the best views of the Anatolian coastline. However, be prepared for significant sun glare during the middle of the flight as you head south-southeast.
