Berlin City Center
Clear views of the Berlin TV Tower, Reichstag, and the Spree river immediately after departure.
Thuringian Forest
Overlooking the dense, rolling green ridges of central Germany's major forest range.
Bernese Oberland
Spectacular sightings of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks on the southern horizon.
Lake Lucerne

Lake Thun

Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and glare. Keep your camera ready about 15-20 minutes before landing, as the Swiss Alps appear suddenly and provide the most iconic photo opportunities of the trip. In winter, the contrast of the snow-capped peaks against the valley is particularly vivid.
