TLV → AMS
Which side of the plane to sit from Ben Gurion International Airport (Tel-aviv) to Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (Amsterdam)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the initial climb over the Mediterranean coast and breathtaking panoramic views of the Dinaric Alps and Central Europe's dramatic mountain ranges.
Tel Aviv Skyline
Immediate views of the Mediterranean coastline and Tel Aviv's urban sprawl during the initial climb.
Balkan Mountains
The rugged limestone peaks of the Dinaric Alps through Albania, Montenegro, and Bosnia.
Central Alps
Stunning panoramic vistas of the main Alpine massif in Austria, including the Grossglockner.
German Heartland
Aerial views of southern German cities and the dense forests of the Bavarian region.
Dutch Polders
The iconic geometric patterns of reclaimed land and canals as the plane descends into Schiphol.
Morning flights offer the best lighting for the Alpine views on this side. Keep your camera ready during the final 15 minutes of flight for the unique 'checkered' Dutch landscape.
Mediterranean Horizon
Expansive views of the deep blue Mediterranean Sea shortly after departing Israeli airspace.
Ionian Islands
Aerial perspectives of the Greek islands such as Corfu as the flight path moves northwest.
Adriatic Coast
Clear views of the numerous islands and turquoise waters along the Croatian coastline.
Western Alps
Snow-capped peaks and high-altitude glacial valleys near the Austrian-German border.
Rhine Valley
The winding Rhine river passing through the historic and industrial heart of Germany.
Choose this side for midday flights to minimize direct sun glare while crossing Europe. It provides the best angle for viewing the Ionian sea and the western edges of the Alpine range.
