Cyprus Coastline
The southern rugged cliffs and turquoise bays of Cyprus are often visible during the first hour.
Taurus Mountains
Dramatic views of the snow-capped peaks along the southern coast of Turkey.
Aegean Archipelago
A beautiful scattered pattern of Greek islands like Rhodes and Crete visible from high altitude.
Sardinian Highlands
The wild, mountainous interior and rocky northern shores of the Italian island of Sardinia.
Montserrat Massif
The iconic serrated mountain range of Catalonia visible as the plane maneuvers for landing.
The Right Side is preferred to avoid the direct glare of the southern sun on this westbound route. It provides the best opportunities for land-based photography. For the best experience, monitor the flight path about 60 minutes after departure to catch the Turkish coastline.
