Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a stunning panorama of the Croatian coastline and the Dalmatian islands before crossing the Adriatic Sea toward Italy, providing high-contrast coastal scenery.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🏙️

Berlin City Center

Aerial view of the Spree River, TV Tower, and the urban density of central Berlin shortly after takeoff.

🏰

Prague and Central Bohemia

Glances of the 'City of a Hundred Spires' and the winding Vltava River as the flight heads south.

🏔️

Julian Alps

Dramatic views of Mount Triglav and the jagged limestone peaks of Slovenia's highest mountain range.

🏝️

Dalmatian Archipelago

The spectacular sight of thousands of Croatian islands including Brač, Hvar, and the Kornati National Park.

🌊

Adriatic Sea Crossing

Deep blue waters contrasting with white wake trails of ferries and private yachts heading toward Italy.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and get the best lighting on the Balkan coastline. As you approach Bari, look for the 'spur' of Italy's boot (Gargano) and the bright turquoise waters of the Apulian coast. Keep your camera ready as you descend over the Adriatic, as the water clarity near Bari is exceptional in summer months.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🌲

Saxon Switzerland

The unique sandstone rock formations and dense forests along the Elbe River valley on the German-Czech border.

🏔️

Hohe Tauern National Park

Breathtaking views of the Austrian Alps, including the Grossglockner peak and surrounding glaciers.

🛶

Venetian Lagoon

A distant but distinct view of Venice and the intricate network of islands in the northern Adriatic.

⛰️

Central Apennines

The rugged spine of Italy featuring the Gran Sasso massif as the plane descends toward the south.

🏟️

Puglia Landscape

The unique pattern of olive groves and 'Trulli' stone houses scattered across the southern Italian countryside.

The right side is ideal for afternoon or sunset flights, as the setting sun illuminates the Austrian Alps and the Italian Apennines with a golden glow. It offers a more mountainous perspective compared to the coastal focus of the left side. Look for the Tremiti Islands near the end of the flight, which often appear as small emerald gems in the sea.
