Our Recommendation

The right side offers superior views of the Aegean archipelago, the dramatic Croatian coastline, and the most impressive peaks of the Eastern and Central Alps.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏝️

Dodecanese Islands

Clear views of Rhodes and the surrounding Greek islands early in the flight.

⛰️

Dinaric Alps

The rugged, limestone mountain range running through Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

🇭🇷

Dalmatian Archipelago

A breathtaking sequence of hundreds of Croatian islands and the coastal city of Split.

🏔️

Austrian & Bavarian Alps

Snow-capped peaks and glacial valleys as the flight crosses Central Europe.

🏙️

Munich Area

Visibility of the Bavarian capital and its surrounding lakes like Starnberg on clear days.

🌊

Rhine River

The winding industrial and scenic lifeline of Western Europe visible before entering Belgian airspace.

The right side is the 'scenic winner' for this route. It provides the best angle for the Croatian coast's unique island formations. To maximize Alpine views, ensure your flight is during daylight hours; the transition from the Mediterranean blue to Alpine white is spectacular.

🐢

Akamas Peninsula

Directly after takeoff, witness the rugged nature reserve and Blue Lagoon on the western tip of Cyprus.

🏛️

Peloponnese Peninsula

Aerial views of the southern Greek mainland, including the deep inlets and mountainous terrain.

🏝️

Ionian Islands

Spot the white cliffs and turquoise waters of Zakynthos and Kefalonia as the flight heads northwest.

🌊

Adriatic Sea

Expansive views of the deep blue Adriatic with the distant silhouette of the Italian coastline.

🌲

Ardennes Forest

The lush, rolling green hills of southern Belgium during the final approach into Charleroi.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. This side is excellent for viewing the Peloponnese and the Ionian sea. If flying during sunset, the left side will provide a stunning golden hour over the Mediterranean.
