ZTH → MAN
Which side of the plane to sit from Zakynthos International Airport "Dionysios Solomos (Zakynthos) to Manchester Airport (Manchester)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Adriatic coastline, the jagged limestone peaks of the Dolomites, and a more scenic approach into Northern England over the Peak District.
Adriatic Sea
Crystal clear views of the Italian east coast and the numerous small islands dotting the blue waters.
The Dolomites
The most dramatic section of the flight featuring the sharp, vertical limestone peaks of the Italian Alps.
The Black Forest
Deep green forested expanses in Southern Germany as the plane heads toward the Benelux region.
Rhine-Meuse Delta
View the intricate network of canals, rivers, and industrial ports near the Dutch and Belgian coasts.
Peak District
The rolling hills, moors, and stone-walled fields of the English National Park during the descent into Manchester.
The right side is the prime choice for Alpine scenery, specifically the Dolomites. On morning flights, the sun will be behind you, illuminating the mountains perfectly. Try to book a seat ahead of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the English countryside and the Peak District during the final approach into MAN.
Ionian Coastline
Stunning views of the turquoise waters and white limestone cliffs of southern Zakynthos during departure.
Central Apennines
The rugged mountainous spine of Italy featuring deep valleys and historic hilltop villages.
Western Alps
Snow-capped peaks and glaciers of the French-Swiss border region visible during the high-altitude cruise.
Northern France
The expansive, geometric patchwork of the French countryside and the winding Seine River basin.
English Channel
Crossing the busy maritime corridor between mainland Europe and the United Kingdom.
Sit on the left for the best views of the Ionian Sea immediately after takeoff. For late afternoon flights, this side will be in the shade, making it easier to take photos without sun glare. Watch for the change from Mediterranean vegetation to the greener landscapes of Northern Europe.
