VIEVNO

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers the most diverse landmarks, including distant views of the High Tatras, a clear perspective of the Warsaw skyline, and the sprawling Masurian Lake District during the final leg.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏰

Bratislava Skyline

Just minutes after takeoff, look right to see the Slovakian capital and its prominent castle perched over the Danube.

🏔️

High Tatras

On clear days, the jagged, snow-capped peaks of the High Tatras along the Polish-Slovak border are visible on the eastern horizon.

🏙️

Warsaw Skyline

The flight path typically passes close to Warsaw, offering a fantastic view of its cluster of modern skyscrapers and the Palace of Culture and Science.

🛶

Masurian Lake District

As you enter northern Poland, the landscape transforms into a stunning patchwork of over 2,000 lakes and dense forests.

The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. Keep your eyes peeled roughly 40 minutes into the flight for the Warsaw skyline, which is often a highlight of this route.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏙️

Vienna Cityscape

Upon departure from VIE, the left side often provides a sweeping view of the Danube and the historic center of Vienna.

🌳

Moravian Karst

The lush, forested landscapes and limestone formations of the eastern Czech Republic are visible shortly after reaching cruising altitude.

🏰

Trakai Island Castle

Depending on the approach path into Vilnius, passengers on the left may spot this iconic 14th-century red-brick castle surrounded by lakes.

Sit on the left for the best chance to see Trakai during the descent into VNO, especially if the wind necessitates a northern approach. During winter, look for the frozen patterns on the Lithuanian lakes.
