Jeseníky Mountains
Excellent views of Praděd peak and the rugged ridges of the High Jeseník shortly after reaching cruising altitude.
Orlické hory
The long, forested ridgelines forming the natural border between Bohemia and Poland.
Hradec Králové
A clear view of the 'Saloon of the Republic' and the confluence of the Labe and Orlice rivers.
Krkonoše Horizon
On clear days, Sněžka, the highest mountain in the Czech Republic, is visible in the far distance to the north.
Labe River Meanders
The winding path of the Elbe (Labe) river as it flows through the fertile Polabí lowlands toward Mělník.
Morning flights are spectacular on this side as the sun rises behind you, perfectly lighting the northern mountain ranges. For the best photography of the Jeseníky peaks, select a seat in the front rows to ensure an unobstructed downward view before the wing block. In winter, these peaks are often snow-capped and highly photogenic.

Panoramic views of the Moravian-Silesian Beskydy, including Lysá hora, visible to the southeast during climb.

The historic city of Olomouc with its numerous church spires and the Svatý Kopeček basilica visible on the horizon.
Central Bohemian Castles

Prague City Center
If the flight approaches via the southern pattern (Runway 30), passengers see the Vltava river and the red roofs of the city.
Choose a window seat behind the wing to avoid engine glare. Afternoon flights are ideal for this side as the sun is positioned to the south, illuminating the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands with a warm glow. Keep an eye out for the Žďárské vrchy peaks midway through the flight.
