Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior panoramic sweep of the turquoise Adriatic coastline and the most dramatic peaks of the Eastern Alps and the Julian Alps.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
🌋

Mount Etna Distant Peak

On clear days during the initial climb, the massive silhouette of Etna may be visible to the southeast.

🏖️

Dalmatian Coast

Exceptional views of the Croatian islands and the limestone cliffs of the Zadar and Rijeka regions.

🏔️

Julian Alps

Soar over the snow-capped peaks of Slovenia and the Triglav National Park region.

⛷️

Austrian Alps

A breathtaking traverse of the Hohe Tauern and the eastern reaches of the Austrian mountain chains.

💧

Vistula River Meanders

The winding path of Poland's longest river as it flows through the southern lowlands toward Kraków.

The right side is unbeatable for Alpine scenery. It is best for morning flights when the sun illuminates the mountains from the east. Keep an eye out midway through the flight as you cross the Adriatic; the contrast between the blue water and the white Croatian islands is spectacular. Avoid this side during late afternoon to prevent glare from the setting sun.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🏝️

Egadi Archipelago

Stunning views of Favignana and Levanzo islands immediately after takeoff from Trapani.

🌊

Tyrrhenian Coastline

Aerial perspective of the Italian western coast as the flight heads north toward the mainland.

🏔️

Central Apennines

The rugged spine of Italy, featuring the Gran Sasso d'Italia and the Abruzzo mountain range.

🏔️

High Tatras

As the plane approaches Poland, catch a glimpse of the jagged granite peaks on the Slovak border.

🏰

Kraków Old Town

On final approach to RWY 25, the Left side frequently sees the Wawel Castle and the historic city center.

Sit on the left for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is also the preferred side for viewing the historic landmarks of Kraków if the aircraft lands from the east. Ensure you are looking out immediately after takeoff to see the Egadi islands before the plane turns north.
