TXL β ZAD
Which side of the plane to sit from Berlin-Tegel Airport (Berlin) to Zadar Airport (Zadar)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a world-class descent over the Adriatic Sea, featuring the stunning Istrian coastline and the dense cluster of islands forming the Zadar archipelago before landing.
Brandenburg Lakes
Beautiful views of the Havel river and the lake district surrounding Potsdam shortly after takeoff.
Dachstein Massif
The jagged limestone peaks of the Northern Calcareous Alps provide a stunning mid-flight spectacle.
Istrian Peninsula
The deep blue of the Adriatic Sea meets the rocky, indented coastline of northern Croatia.
Kvarner Gulf Islands
Aerial views of Krk, Cres, and LoΕ‘inj islands sitting in the turquoise waters below.
Zadar Archipelago
An incredible final approach over the dozens of small, uninhabited islands that dot the Zadar coastline.
The right side is essential for the iconic 'island-hopping' view during the descent. For afternoon flights, this side offers the best lighting for photography without direct sun glare. Ensure you have a window seat clear of the wing for the best views of the Istrian coast.
Berlin Cityscape
Panoramic views of the Spree river and Berlin's southern districts during the initial climb.
Erzgebirge Range
The rolling forested hills marking the natural border between Germany and the Czech Republic.
Hohe Tauern
Dramatic views of the eastern Austrian Alps, including some of the region's highest glacial peaks.
Velebit Mountains
The rugged, grey limestone peaks of Croatia's largest mountain range as you approach the coast.
Choose the left side for morning flights to enjoy the sun illuminating the Alpine peaks. It is the better side for viewing the sheer scale of the Velebit mountain wall just before the final descent into Zadar.
