Cyprus Coastline
Aerial view of the island's unique shape and the southern coastal cities.
Taurus Mountains
The dramatic snow-capped peaks of southern Turkey visible across the water.
Budapest & The Danube
A striking view of the Hungarian capital divided by the winding Danube river.
Carpathian Arc
The sweeping mountain range that defines the landscape of Romania and Slovakia.
Saxon Switzerland
The Elbe Sandstone Mountains near the border between Czechia and Germany.
Look for Cyprus roughly 40 minutes into the flight. This side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun will be on the port side, allowing for better photography of the Taurus and Carpathian mountains. Seats in front of the wing are recommended to avoid engine heat distortion when capturing the Balkan landscapes.

Mediterranean Horizon
Expansive views of the deep blue sea shortly after takeoff from Tel Aviv.
Aegean Silhouette
Distant views of the Greek archipelago if the flight path tracks slightly westward.
Dinaric Alps
Glimpses of the rugged mountain ranges across the Balkan Peninsula.
Prague
Possibility of seeing the 'City of a Hundred Spires' as you descend toward Germany.
Opt for the left side on morning departures to avoid the sun's glare. During the final approach into Berlin, you may catch a glimpse of the western city suburbs and the Wannsee lake area. This side is also better for seeing the sunset on late-afternoon flights heading northwest.
