Taurus Mountains
Snow-capped peaks and dramatic limestone ridges of the Western Taurus range in Turkey.
Black Sea Ports
Clear views of coastal settlements and shipping lanes along the Turkish and eventually Russian coastlines.
Russian Steppe
The vast, organized patterns of agricultural fields in the Voronezh or Lipetsk regions of Southern Russia.
Oka River
The winding path of the Oka River, a major tributary of the Volga, visible shortly before reaching Moscow.
Moscow Skyline
On clear days and specific landing patterns into DME, the distant skyscrapers of Moscow City are visible to the North.
The right side is ideal for catching the sunset if flying in the evening. During the winter months, the contrast between the Mediterranean blue and the snow-covered Russian plains is spectacular. Look out for the massive industrial complexes and cooling towers often visible on the outskirts of Moscow.

Rhodes Old Town
Aerial view of the Palace of the Grand Master and the medieval fortifications of Rhodes city immediately after departure.
Aegean Archipelago
A stunning mosaic of small Greek islands and deep blue waters as the aircraft climbs to cruising altitude.
Turkish Riviera
The jagged and beautiful coastline of Western Turkey, including the peninsula of Bodrum.
Black Sea Crossing
A vast, seemingly endless horizon of the Black Sea as the flight heads North towards Russia.
Russian Forests
Dense clusters of deciduous and coniferous forests characteristic of the Moscow Oblast during the descent.
Sit on the left for the best views of the Rhodes coastline during takeoff. Since this is a Northbound flight, the left side will experience direct sunlight in the afternoon; choose an early morning flight to avoid glare and keep your window shade open comfortably.
