Lake Balaton
The largest lake in Central Europe, visible as a long turquoise stretch in Western Hungary.
The Alps
Distant but majestic views of the snow-capped Austrian and Swiss Alps far to the south.
Rhine River
Aerial crossing of the historic Rhine valley near the German-French border region.
Ardennes Forest
The dense, rolling green hills of Southern Belgium and Luxembourg.
London Skyline
On the final descent, iconic landmarks like The Shard and Canary Wharf are often visible to the south.
Choose this side for morning flights to avoid the harsh direct sunlight. During clear winter days, the snow on the distant Alps is highly reflective and provides excellent photography opportunities. Watch for the English Channel crossing about 20 minutes before landing.
