Turkish Riviera
Breathtaking views of the Datça Peninsula and the rugged coastline of Marmaris immediately after takeoff.
Cyclades Islands
A stunning aerial mosaic of the Aegean islands including Amorgos, Naxos, and Mykonos.
Dinaric Alps
The dramatic karst landscape and jagged limestone peaks stretching through Albania and Montenegro.
Dalmatian Archipelago
A highlight of the trip, featuring hundreds of Croatian islands like Hvar and Brač set in turquoise waters.
Austrian Alps
Prime views of the Hohe Tauern national park and potentially the Grossglockner, Austria's highest peak.
Frankfurt Skyline
As the flight heads north-west through Germany, the 'Mainhattan' skyscrapers are often visible in the distance.
The right side is the undisputed winner for island lovers. Ensure you have a window seat clear of the wing for the first 20 minutes to see the Turkish coast. In winter, the Austrian Alps on this side provide a spectacular, continuous snow-covered panorama for about 15 minutes of flight time.

Saronic Gulf
Expansive views of the deep blue waters south of Athens and the rugged Peloponnese coastline.
Corinth Canal
A potential top-down view of the famous narrow waterway separating the Peloponnese from mainland Greece.
Italian Horizon
On clear days, the distant outline of the Apulian coast (the heel of Italy) is visible across the Adriatic.
Western Alps
Dramatic views of snow-capped peaks and glaciers as the plane traverses the border of Austria and Germany.
Rhine River
The winding path of the Rhine becomes visible as you approach the industrial heartland of Germany.
Choose the left side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you and avoid glare. Keep a keen eye out approximately 30-40 minutes after takeoff for the Corinth Canal, as it passes quickly. During the final descent into DUS, look for the tall Rhine Tower in Düsseldorf.
