Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side provides a continuous panorama of historical landmasses, including the Israeli shoreline, Cyprus, the Greek archipelagos, and the rugged Apennine spine of Italy.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏖️

Israeli Shoreline

View the white sands and urban sprawl of the Sharon Plain immediately after departing Ben Gurion.

🇨🇾

Cyprus

Catch the southern coastline and the Troodos Mountains as the plane transits the eastern Mediterranean.

🏝️

Dodecanese Islands

Spot Rhodes and smaller Greek islands scattered like gems across the turquoise Aegean Sea.

🏛️

Peloponnese

Witness the rugged mountains and deep bays of the southern Greek mainland from a high cruise altitude.

🏔️

Apennine Mountains

During the descent into Fiumicino, view the snow-capped peaks and valley fog of central Italy.

The right side is ideal for spotting the Turkish Taurus Mountains and the intricate patterns of the Aegean islands. On clear days, the descent into Rome provides an excellent view of the Tiber River and the Apennine range. Book a seat forward of the wing for the best photography.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Tel Aviv Skyline

A sweeping view of the Mediterranean coastline and the city's modern architecture immediately after takeoff.

🌊

Mediterranean Deep

Miles of deep cobalt blue water, often dotted with cargo ships traveling the major trade routes.

⛰️

Southern Crete

The southern coastline and high peaks of the largest Greek island are visible in the distance during mid-flight.

🌋

Mount Vesuvius

On the final approach to Rome, the iconic volcano near Naples is often visible to the south.

🍋

Amalfi Coast

The stunning, jagged coastline of southern Italy provides a spectacular backdrop during the initial descent phase.

For morning departures, the left side offers softer light. As you approach Rome, keep an eye out for the distinct silhouette of Mount Vesuvius. During winter, the low sun angle creates high-contrast shadows on the southern Greek mountains.
