Which side of the plane to sit from Odessa International Airport (Odessa) to Vienna International Airport (Vienna)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Moldovan landscape, the majestic Northern Carpathians, and a spectacular aerial perspective of Budapest and the Danube Bend during the descent into Vienna.
Dniester Estuary
Expansive water views and lush wetlands located just west of Odesa.
Chisinau
The Moldovan capital is often visible as the flight path crosses the border area.
Eastern Carpathians
Dense forests and rugged ridges of the northern arc of the Carpathian Mountains.
Budapest Skyline
Breathtaking views of the Hungarian Parliament and the Danube bridges during descent.
Danube Bend
The iconic scenic curve of the Danube River north of Budapest near Visegrรกd.
This side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the European continent. Have your camera ready approximately 25 minutes before landing for the best views of the Budapest city center and the winding Danube River.
Black Sea Coast
Panoramic views of the Odesa coastline and harbor immediately after takeoff.
Danube Delta
The vast, intricate wetlands where the Danube meets the Black Sea to the south.
Southern Carpathians
Dramatic, jagged peaks of the Romanian mountain range stretching across the horizon.
Lake Balaton
Central Europe's largest lake, known for its distinct turquoise color, visible in Western Hungary.
Pannonian Basin
Vast, colorful geometric agricultural patterns across the plains of Central Europe.
Sit on this side for early morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. Look for the Dniester Liman shortly after departure. In winter, the snow-capped Southern Carpathians provide a stunning white contrast to the surrounding valleys.
