Passengers on the left side can see the historic city of Plovdiv and its ancient hills, with the dramatic silhouette of the Rhodope Mountains rising to the south.
The right side offers the most consistent views of major European landmarks, including the Balkan Mountains and the Hungarian capital, Budapest, while providing optimal lighting away from the sun's glare.
The left side offers a superior vantage point for the highest peaks in the Balkans shortly after takeoff and provides a more dramatic perspective of the Alpine foothills and the Rhine River valley during descent.
