TLV β†’ BSL

Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side provides a superior perspective of the Israeli northern coastline upon departure, potential views of the Venetian lagoon or the Dolomites, and a stunning panorama of the Central Swiss Alps and the Black Forest during the descent into EuroAirport.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
πŸ–οΈ

Northern Israeli Coast

Clear views of the coastline towards Netanya and Haifa as the aircraft turns northwest.

πŸ‡¨πŸ‡Ύ

Cyprus

The southern coast of Cyprus is frequently visible during the first hour of the flight.

πŸ›Ά

Adriatic Coast & Venice

On common flight paths, the right side offers a chance to see the Venetian lagoon and the Italian coast.

πŸ”οΈ

The Swiss Alps

Breathtaking close-up views of the Eiger, MΓΆnch, and Jungfrau massifs while crossing into Switzerland.

πŸ₯¨

Rhine River & Black Forest

Views of the winding Rhine River and the dark, dense woods of Germany's Black Forest just before landing.

The right side is the clear winner for Alpine enthusiasts. For the best lighting on the mountain peaks, try to book a morning or midday flight to avoid the silhouette effect of the afternoon sun. During the landing approach into BSL, watch for the 'Three Countries Bridge' which connects France and Germany near the Swiss border.

πŸ™οΈ

Tel Aviv & Jaffa

A sweeping view of the Tel Aviv skyline and the ancient port of Jaffa immediately after takeoff.

🌊

Mediterranean Crossing

Vast expanses of deep blue water, often passing south of the Greek islands like Crete.

πŸ‡¬πŸ‡·

Peloponnese Peninsula

The rugged, mountainous terrain of southern Greece is often visible on the southern flight tracks.

πŸ”οΈ

Western Alps

Distant views of the high peaks of the Swiss and French Alps as the plane heads north.

🌲

Jura Mountains

The characteristic parallel ridges and lush forests of the Jura range during the final approach.

Choose the left side for a dramatic view of the Israeli coast during the initial climb. If flying during the afternoon, this side will offer a beautiful view of the sunset over the Mediterranean, though glare can be an issue for photography. Keep your window shade open during the last 20 minutes to see the green valleys of the Jura.
