Which side of the plane to sit from Vienna International Airport (Vienna) to Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport (Kerkyra/corfu)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers an unparalleled panorama of the Adriatic coastline, including the famous Dalmatian Islands and the historic city of Dubrovnik, before a scenic approach into Corfu.
Austrian Alps
Spectacular views of the Schneeberg and the eastern edge of the Alps immediately after departing Vienna.
Dalmatian Archipelago
A stunning stretch of over a thousand Croatian islands including Krk, BraΔ, and Hvar, surrounded by turquoise waters.
Dubrovnik
Clear views of the 'Pearl of the Adriatic' with its iconic red-roofed Old Town and medieval city walls.
Kotor Bay
The winding bay of Montenegro, often described as Europe's southernmost fjord, carved into the mountains.
Corfu Town
As the plane aligns with Runway 34, you get a direct view of the Old Fortress and the Venetian architecture of Corfu city.
Book a window seat behind the wing to capture the Adriatic coast without obstruction. This side is especially magical during afternoon flights as the sun illuminates the white limestone cliffs of the islands. Watch for the 'Vlacherna Monastery' on the final seconds of the descent.
Lake Neusiedl
The largest endorheic lake in Central Europe, visible shortly after takeoff on the border of Austria and Hungary.
Dinaric Alps
The rugged, rocky interior of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro, showing deep valleys and karst formations.
Lake Skadar
A dolphin-shaped lake shared by Montenegro and Albania, surrounded by dramatic wetlands and limestone peaks.
Butrint National Park
On final approach, look for the wetlands and archaeological ruins located just across the narrow strait in Albania.
The left side is best for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. It provides a great perspective of the Albanian coastline and the rugged Pindus mountain range as you cross into Greek airspace. Keep an eye out for the Igoumenitsa port on the Greek mainland during descent.
