OTPOMR

Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers an unparalleled view of the highest peaks in the Romanian Carpathians, including the dramatic Bucegi and Făgăraș massifs, along with the rolling hills of the Transylvanian Plateau.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
🏔️

Bucegi Massif

Early in the flight, look for the vertical limestone walls and the high plateau containing the Sphinx and Babele.

🏔️

Făgăraș Mountains

The 'Transylvanian Alps' showcase Romania's highest peaks, including Moldoveanu and Negoiu, often snow-capped.

🏰

Transylvanian Plateau

A patchwork of agricultural fields and historic villages with fortified churches characteristic of the Saxon heritage.

🏠

Oradea Skyline

During final approach, enjoy a view of Oradea's Art Nouveau architecture and the Crișul Repede river.

The right side is the definitive choice for mountain photography. The Făgăraș range is most impressive in late spring when the peaks are still white. For the best experience, choose a seat ahead of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Bucegi cliffs.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🏙️

Bucharest Outskirts

Aerial views of the northern residential areas and the Snagov forest shortly after takeoff from OTP.

🌊

Olt River Defile

A stunning view of the Olt River as it carves a deep valley through the Southern Carpathian Mountains.

🏘️

Sibiu City

On clear days, the red roofs of the medieval city of Sibiu are visible at the foot of the Cindrel Mountains.

⛰️

Apuseni Mountains

The green, rounded peaks and karst formations of the Western Carpathians as the plane begins its descent.

Sit on the left side during morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is excellent for seeing the winding Olt river valley. Keep an eye out for the Cozia Monastery nestled in the mountains near the river bank.
