Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior panorama of the Adriatic and Ionian coastlines, followed by a dramatic traversal of the Greek mainland and a stunning approach through the heart of the Cyclades.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
🏔️

Julian Alps

Dramatic snow-capped peaks on the border of Austria and Slovenia visible in the first 30 minutes of flight.

🏖️

Dalmatian Coast

The stunning, jagged coastline of Croatia featuring a labyrinth of limestone islands and turquoise bays.

🌊

Albanian Riviera

Where the Ceraunian Mountains meet the Ionian Sea, offering views of pristine, secluded coastal strips.

🌉

Gulf of Corinth

The narrow strip of water separating the Peloponnese from the Greek mainland, often crossed mid-flight.

🏝️

Delos & Rhenia

Uninhabited sister islands of Mykonos; Delos is a major archaeological site visible just minutes before touchdown.

For afternoon or sunset flights, the right side provides a spectacular 'golden hour' glow over the Adriatic and Greek islands. Keep your camera ready during the final 10 minutes; the approach typically passes right over the sacred ruins of Delos and the crystal-clear turquoise waters surrounding Rhenia.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🛶

Neusiedler See

The largest endorheic lake in Central Europe, visible shortly after departure on the Austrian-Hungarian border.

🏔️

Balkan Highlands

Rugged, densely forested mountain ranges stretching across Serbia and the Bulgarian border regions.

🏛️

Mount Olympus

The legendary home of the Greek gods, visible as a massive limestone massif in the distance over the mainland.

🌊

Sporades Archipelago

Beautiful green islands like Skiathos and Skopelos dotting the deep blue North Aegean Sea.

⛪

Tinos Island

The terraced hillsides and traditional villages of Mykonos's immediate northern neighbor during the final descent.

Morning flights are ideal for the left side to avoid direct sun glare. During the descent into Mykonos, watch for the intricate terraced farming patterns on Tinos. If the plane circles for landing, you may catch a glimpse of the iconic white windmills of Mykonos Town depending on the wind direction.
