TLV → PRG
Which side of the plane to sit from Ben Gurion International Airport (Tel-aviv) to Václav Havel Airport Prague (Prague)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Israeli coastline upon departure and typically provides a better angle of Prague's historic center and the Vltava river during the standard arrival sequence into Václav Havel Airport.
Tel Aviv Skyline
A stunning aerial view of the metropolitan coastline, white beaches, and urban sprawl immediately after takeoff from Ben Gurion.
Taurus Mountains
Rugged, dramatic limestone peaks along the southern coast of Turkey as the flight path heads toward the Balkans.
Danube River
Crossing the silver thread of Europe's second-longest river near the borders of Serbia and Hungary.
Prague Panorama
Exceptional views of the 'City of a Hundred Spires,' including the Vltava River and historical districts during the standard landing pattern.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight. Pay close attention during the final 15 minutes of the flight; if landing on Runway 24, the plane typically performs a northern loop that offers the best views of Prague Castle and the city center from the right-hand windows.
Mediterranean Deep
Expansive views of the turquoise sea shortly after departure from Tel Aviv, transitioning into the deep blue of the open water.
Greek Islands
Distant glimpses of Rhodes and the Dodecanese archipelago scattered across the Aegean Sea mid-flight.
Eastern Alps
On very clear days, the jagged, snow-capped peaks of the Austrian Alps are visible on the far western horizon.
Moravian Fields
The transition into the Czech Republic features the rolling agricultural landscapes and geometric patchwork of Moravia.
Opt for this side on afternoon flights to keep the sun behind you and avoid glare. During winter months, look for the stark contrast between the snow-covered Balkan mountains and the dark pine forests of the Czech border.
