Deep blue Alpine lakes like Wolfgangsee and Attersee surrounded by steep green mountains near Salzburg.
The Danube River

Prague City Center
During the descent, the right side often catches a glimpse of the Vltava River, Charles Bridge, and the Prague Castle complex.
The right side is essential for seeing the Grossglockner, which is the scenic highlight of the route. For the best photography, choose a seat behind the wing to capture the engine against the backdrop of the Austrian glaciers. Afternoon flights offer the best lighting for the Alpine peaks on this side.
