Prague Castle

The world's largest ancient castle complex is often visible shortly after departure from Václav Havel Airport.

🐟

Třeboň Lake District

🏔️

Northern Limestone Alps

On clear days, the distant snow-capped peak of Schneeberg marks the beginning of the Alpine range to the southwest.

🌳

Vienna Woods

Fly over the massive green lung surrounding Vienna, known as the Wienerwald, during the descent.

🏙️

Vienna City Center

Depending on the runway, catch glimpses of St. Stephen's Cathedral and the Donauturm during the final minutes of flight.

The right side is perfect for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Alps. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes after takeoff to capture the geometric patterns of the Třeboň fishponds.

Prague Eastern Districts

Aerial views of the Vltava river and the residential architecture of eastern Prague during the initial climb.
