Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior visual journey featuring the snow-capped peaks of the Eastern Alps, a stunning sweep of the Adriatic coastline, and a more direct view of iconic Aegean volcanic islands like Santorini.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🏔️

Eastern Alps

Dramatic views of the Austrian Alps including the Dachstein Massif appearing to the west shortly after takeoff.

🌊

Dalmatian Coast

The intricate archipelago of Croatia with thousands of islands and deep blue Adriatic waters.

🏞️

Bay of Kotor

The winding 'southernmost fjord' of Montenegro, a spectacular sight from cruising altitude.

🏛️

The Peloponnese

Views of the rugged southern Greek mainland and the Gulf of Corinth.

🌋

Santorini

The world-famous volcanic caldera of Santorini is often visible to the right as you descend through the Aegean.

🌅

Rhodes West Coast

Excellent views of the beaches and the mountainous interior of Rhodes during the final descent.

Sit on the right for the most diverse landscape transitions, from high mountains to the sea. For afternoon or sunset flights, this side provides spectacular lighting over the Aegean Sea. Keep your camera ready about 20-30 minutes before landing for a chance to spot the unique circular shape of the Santorini caldera.

Left Side Highlights
7.4
🏰

Prague Panorama

Aerial view of the Vltava river and the red roofs of the Czech capital shortly after departure.

💧

Lake Balaton

Central Europe's largest lake, known for its turquoise waters, visible as you cross into Hungary.

⛰️

The Rhodope Mountains

Rugged, forested terrain stretching across the border of Bulgaria and Greece.

🏝️

Northern Aegean Islands

Early glimpses of islands like Lemnos and the eastern clusters of the Cyclades.

🇹🇷

Turkish Coastline

Stunning views of the Datça Peninsula and the mountainous Turkish mainland just before landing in Rhodes.

🛫

Rhodes Town

Depending on the approach, a view of the medieval Old Town and the Mandraki Harbor.

The left side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the glare of the southern sun. During the final 15 minutes of the flight, look out for the dramatic coastline of Turkey, which often looks close enough to touch. This side typically offers a better view of the Rhodes harbor and the historical northern tip of the island if landing from the north.
