Which side of the plane to sit from Diagoras Airport (Rhodos) to Munich Airport (Munich)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior vantage point for the stunning Dalmatian coastline and the dramatic entry into the Alps from the south.
Dodecanese Archipelago
Aerial views of the islands of Tilos and Nisyros shortly after departure from Rhodes.
Saronic Gulf
Glance towards the Greek mainland to see the intricate coastline near Athens and the Peloponnese.
Dubrovnik
The historic walled city of Dubrovnik and the Elaphiti Islands visible along the Croatian coast.
Dalmatian Coast
A continuous view of the turquoise waters and thousands of islands bordering the Adriatic Sea.
The Dolomites
Jagged limestone peaks of the Italian and Austrian Alps as the plane heads north towards Bavaria.
Book a window seat on the left for afternoon flights to enjoy the golden hour light reflecting off the Adriatic Sea. This side provides a better view of the Croatian islands, which are a major highlight of this route. Keep your camera ready about 90 minutes into the flight for the best coastal shots.
Turkish Riviera
Views of the rugged Anatolian coast and the nearby Greek island of Symi during initial climb.
Thessaloniki
The sprawling urban landscape of Greece's second city and the wide Thermaic Gulf.
Lake Ohrid
The deep blue waters of one of Europe's oldest and deepest lakes on the Balkan peninsula.
Hohe Tauern
The high peaks of the Austrian Alps, including the snow-capped Grossglockner massif.
Bavarian Lakes
Deep blue alpine lakes like Chiemsee and Simssee visible during the final descent into Munich.
The right side is excellent for catching the sunrise on early morning departures. It offers a closer look at the high-altitude peaks of the Austrian Alps. On the final approach to Munich Airport, look out for the Allianz Arena if the flight path comes in from the north or east.
