TUNDME

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the Mediterranean islands, specifically the active peak of Mount Etna in Sicily, followed by the dramatic coastline of the Adriatic and the rugged Balkan mountains.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌋

Mount Etna

A prime view of Europe's most active volcano on the island of Sicily, often seen venting steam or smoke.

🏝️

Adriatic Archipelago

The stunning sight of hundreds of Croatian islands dotting the turquoise Adriatic Sea.

⛰️

Dinaric Alps

The rugged, limestone mountain ranges of Montenegro and Serbia providing dramatic shadows at sunrise or sunset.

💧

Danube River

The massive, winding blue artery of Europe as it snakes through the Pannonian Basin.

🏙️

Moscow Cityscape

During the final approach to Domodedovo, look for the distant Seven Sisters skyscrapers and the modern Moscow City district.

The right side is the 'volcano side.' Ensure you are awake about 45-60 minutes after takeoff to catch Sicily. In winter, this side receives the best golden hour light when flying north-northeast toward Moscow in the afternoon. Be aware that current flight paths may detour around certain airspaces, potentially extending the time spent over the Black Sea or Turkey.

Left Side Highlights
6.8
🏛️

Carthage & Sidi Bou Said

Immediate views of the ancient ruins and the iconic blue-and-white village of Sidi Bou Said upon departure from Tunis.

🌊

Tyrrhenian Sea

Vast turquoise waters of the Mediterranean with distant glimpses of the Italian west coast and Sardinia.

🏔️

Distant Alpine Horizon

On exceptionally clear days, the white peaks of the Alps can be seen far to the north while crossing Central Europe.

🌲

Belarusian Forests

Dense, dark green forest canopies typical of the Eastern European plains as the flight nears Russian airspace.

Sit on the left if you want the best view of the Tunisian coastline immediately after takeoff. For late afternoon flights, this side will be in the shade, reducing glare for photography of the Russian plains during descent.
