WAW → BEG
Which side of the plane to sit from Warsaw Chopin Airport (Warsaw) to Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport (Belgrade)?
Right Side of the Plane
While both sides offer stunning views of the Tatra Mountains, the right side is generally superior for viewing Lake Balaton in Hungary and provides a better perspective of the Sava-Danube confluence when approaching Belgrade from the north.
Search flights from WAW to BEG
Western Tatras
Extensive views of the alpine ridges and glacial valleys of the Tatra National Park.
Lake Balaton
Central Europe's largest lake, easily recognizable by its elongated shape and distinct turquoise-green water.
Pannonian Basin
The vast, flat agricultural heartland of Hungary and northern Serbia, creating a colorful geometric mosaic.
Belgrade Confluence
A spectacular view of where the Sava River meets the Danube, right next to the historic Kalemegdan Fortress on descent.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset over the Pannonian plains. During the descent into BEG, the right side usually offers a clearer view of the Belgrade city center and the river merger if the plane approaches from the northwest.

Warsaw Cityscape
Aerial views of the Vistula River and the downtown skyscrapers shortly after takeoff from Chopin Airport.
High Tatra Peaks
Dramatic, jagged granite peaks of the highest range in the Carpathian Mountains along the Polish-Slovak border.
Budapest Panorama
Depending on the flight path, a chance to see the sprawling urban landscape of the Hungarian capital and the Danube.
Danube River Bends
The winding path of the Danube as it flows south toward the Balkan Peninsula.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and get the best lighting on the High Tatras. Keep an eye out about 30-40 minutes into the flight for the most dramatic mountain scenery.
