High Tatra Mountains
Jagged, snow-capped peaks forming the natural border between Poland and Slovakia.
Carpathian Mountains
Extensive aerial views of the forested ridges and winding valleys through central Romania.
Rhodes and Dodecanese
A distant but beautiful view of the Greek islands scattered across the turquoise Aegean Sea.
Mediterranean Horizon
A long, serene stretch of the Mediterranean Sea with various shipping lanes visible from high altitude.
Ashdod and Southern Coast
The golden beaches and the Port of Ashdod are clearly visible just before the final turn for landing.
Choose the right side for the most diverse geographic scenery, particularly the mountain ranges of Central Europe. For afternoon flights, be prepared for some sun glare on this side. During the winter, the snow cover on the Tatras makes for exceptional photography. This side is ideal for capturing the sunset over the sea on evening flights.
Book Hotels in Tel-aviv
Vilnius Old Town
Immediately after takeoff, see the historic red-roofed buildings and the Gediminas Tower of the Lithuanian capital.
Balkan Mountains
Vast views of the rugged mountain terrain as the flight traverses over Bulgaria.
Cyprus Island
Clear views of the eastern Mediterranean's largest island, often passing near its northern or eastern coasts.
Tel Aviv Skyline
On the final approach to Ben Gurion, the left side typically offers a panoramic view of the coastline and the skyscrapers of central Tel Aviv.
Sit on the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and harsh glare. This side is also preferred for the best view of the Tel Aviv urban sprawl during the standard descent into Runway 12. Keep an eye out for the Anatolian coast of Turkey if the path veers slightly inland.
