Jutland Peninsula
Clear views of the Danish plains and the sandy beaches of the North Sea coast during the initial cruise phase.
Prague Cityscape
On clear days, the 'City of a Hundred Spires' and its historic bridges are visible while crossing the Czech Republic.
Lake Balaton
Central Europe's largest lake, easily identified by its elongated shape and unique milky-green water.
Rhodope Mountains
Densely forested ridges and deep valleys located along the southern Bulgarian and Greek border.
Turquoise Coast
The stunning intersection of the Mediterranean Sea and the rugged cliffs of the Lycian Way near Antalya.
Antalya & BeydaΔlarΔ±
A spectacular final view of the city, the old harbor, and the massive western Taurus mountains rising from the sea.
The right side is the 'money seat' for the approach into Antalya. As the plane descends over the Taurus Mountains, you will often get a panoramic view of the entire Gulf of Antalya. If flying in the late afternoon, be prepared for significant sun glare; however, this is also when you'll capture the best golden hour photos of the Turkish coastline.
Book Hotels in AntalyaOslofjord & Swedish Coast
Aerial views of the Norwegian archipelago and the far-off Swedish coastline immediately after take-off.
High Tatra Mountains
The jagged, snow-capped peaks defining the border between Poland and Slovakia are often visible in the distance.
Danube Bend
The majestic curve of the Danube River as it flows through northern Hungary towards Budapest.
Balkan Mountains
A long, continuous ridge of rugged terrain stretching across the heart of Bulgaria.
Eastern Taurus Range
Sharp limestone massifs and deep canyons as the aircraft enters Turkish airspace from the north.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun, which will be on the right. This side is also better for spotting the lights of Sofia or Bucharest during night flights. Keep an eye out for the Danube River, which acts as a primary navigational landmark throughout Central Europe.
