TXL → SPU
Which side of the plane to sit from Berlin-Tegel Airport (Berlin) to Split Airport (Split)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an unparalleled panorama of the Austrian Alps' highest peaks followed by a spectacular descent over the turquoise Adriatic Sea and the dense cluster of Dalmatian islands.
Potsdam Palaces
View the historic Sanssouci Park and its royal structures shortly after takeoff from the Berlin area.
Grossglockner
Look for Austria's highest mountain peak and its prominent Pasterze Glacier in the distance.
Salzburg & Watzmann
The city of Mozart and the iconic Watzmann peak are frequently visible during the cruise over the border.
Kvarner Gulf
The stunning transition from the mountains to the deep blue Adriatic Sea near the city of Rijeka.
Kornati Archipelago
A dense labyrinth of over 100 islands and reefs with crystal clear water, visible during the descent.
This is the premier side for the coastal approach. For the best photography of the islands, book a flight arriving in the afternoon when the sun highlights the turquoise water. Ensure you are seated away from the wing to fully capture the vastness of the Alps.
Berlin Fernsehturm
Catch a glimpse of the iconic TV tower and the sprawling city center during the initial climb.
Saxon Switzerland
Dramatic sandstone rock formations and deep canyons along the Elbe river near the Czech border.
Dachstein Massif
Towering limestone peaks and glaciers of the Northern Limestone Alps in Austria.
Velebit Mountains
The largest mountain range in Croatia, featuring rugged karst landscapes and steep slopes.
Split Historic Center
View the ancient Diocletian's Palace and the bustling Riva promenade as the plane turns for final approach.
Sit here for the best views of the German and Austrian mountain massifs. During the descent into SPU, this side often provides a direct view of the historic harbor. Morning flights are ideal to avoid the sun's glare on this side.
