Rhodes & Symi
Aerial views of the northern tip of Rhodes and the rugged, indented coastline of Symi island immediately after takeoff.
The Cyclades
A stunning mosaic of white-washed islands including Mykonos, Tinos, and Syros scattered across the deep blue Aegean Sea.
Ionian Sea
Glittering views of the sea as the flight crosses from mainland Greece toward the Italian peninsula and the Adriatic.
Western Alps
Majestic snow-capped peaks of the Swiss and French Alps, often including distant views of Mont Blanc on clear days.
Champagne Region
The geometric patterns of the famous French vineyards as the plane begins its descent towards the Belgian border.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the southern sun. This side is particularly spectacular during the first 45 minutes of the flight while over the Greek islands. For the best Alpine views, ensure you are seated behind the wing to see the vast mountain ranges without obstruction.

Turkish Riviera
Clear views of the Datça Peninsula and the rugged mountains of the Turkish mainland across the strait from Rhodes.
Pindus Mountains
The dramatic, rocky spine of mainland Greece and the jagged peaks of the Balkan Peninsula.
Alpine Lakes
Glimpses of deep blue Swiss lakes such as Lake Zurich or Lake Constance depending on the specific airway taken.
Ardennes Forest
A vast expanse of dense green rolling hills covering Luxembourg and the southern Wallonia region of Belgium.
Charleroi Basin
The industrial heritage landmarks and 'terrils' (slag heaps) that characterize the landscape of the Sambre valley on final approach.
The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights as the sun will be on the opposite side of the aircraft. Look out early for the Turkish coast, which is surprisingly close. During the final approach into CRL, this side often provides better views of the city of Charleroi and its unique industrial-to-green transition.
