Our Recommendation
8.7

Left Side of the Plane

The Left Side is the clear winner for this route, offering a spectacular sequence of European highlights including the Swiss Alps, the Venetian Lagoon, and the stunningly rugged Dalmatian coastline before descending over the Aegean islands.

Left Side Highlights
8.7
πŸ™οΈ

Rotterdam Cityscape

Aerial views of the modern Rotterdam skyline and the expansive Port of Rotterdam shortly after takeoff.

πŸ”οΈ

Central Alps

Dramatic views of the snow-capped Swiss and Austrian peaks during the mid-flight cruise.

πŸ›Ά

Venice & The Lagoon

On clear days, the distinct shape of Venice and its surrounding islands are visible as the flight crosses the Italian coast.

πŸ‡­πŸ‡·

Dalmatian Archipelago

An incredible view of Croatia's thousands of islands and the limestone cliffs bordering the Adriatic Sea.

🏰

Bodrum Peninsula

A close-up view of the white-washed houses and St. Peter's Castle during the final approach into Milas-Bodrum.

For the best experience, choose a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Alps and the Adriatic coast perfectly. The descent into Bodrum often banks left, providing a panoramic view of the Turkish Riviera. Keep your camera ready roughly 1 hour and 45 minutes after departure for the coastal views.

Right Side Highlights
7.4
🏰

Rhine Valley

Views of the winding Rhine River and the industrial heartland of Western Germany.

🌲

Black Forest

The dense, dark green canopy of the Black Forest region in southwestern Germany.

⛰️

Dinaric Mountains

The rugged, mountainous interior of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro.

πŸ›οΈ

Mainland Greece

A broad view of the Pindus mountain range and the southern Balkan landscape.

🌊

Aegean Sea Expanses

Deep blue water vistas punctuated by the smaller Cyclades islands in the distance.

The right side is preferable on late afternoon flights to avoid direct glare from the sun, which will be on the left. It offers a great perspective of the interior Balkan mountains. During the final approach, you may see the Gulf of GΓΌllΓΌk and the northern coastline of the Bodrum peninsula.
