Which side of the plane to sit from Priština International Airport (Pristina) to Zürich Airport (Zurich)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a superior scenic experience, combining the rugged Balkan peaks, a sweeping view of the Adriatic coastline, and the high-altitude glaciers of the Swiss Alps.
Prokletije Mountains
Dramatic views of the Accursed Mountains on the Kosovo-Montenegro border shortly after departure.
Dalmatian Coast
Breathtaking aerial views of the Croatian islands and the turquoise waters of the Adriatic Sea.
Italian Dolomites
The sharp, jagged limestone silhouettes of the Italian Alps visible in the southern distance.
Central Swiss Alps
Iconic views of the Bernese Oberland peaks, including the Eiger and Jungfrau, during the descent into Zurich.
For the best lighting over the Adriatic islands, choose a morning flight. During afternoon flights, you may encounter sun glare on this side. Keep your window shade open 30-40 minutes before landing for the most dramatic glacier views as you enter Swiss airspace.
Dinaric Alps
Dense forest canopies and deep limestone canyons of the Bosnian and Croatian hinterlands.
Julian Alps
Clear views of Mount Triglav, the highest peak in Slovenia, and the surrounding alpine landscape.
Austrian Tyrol
A continuous panorama of the snow-capped Austrian Alps stretching toward the horizon.
Lake Constance
A massive vista of the Bodensee, marking the border between Switzerland, Germany, and Austria before landing.
The right side is ideal for afternoon travel to avoid direct sunlight, making it better for photography. Look out for the massive expanse of Lake Constance approximately 15 minutes before landing. In winter, this side offers stunning views of the snow-covered Pannonian fringe.
