Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Karpathos to Boston. Left side wins at both ends of the flight. Over the Mediterranean you get the Dodecanese island chain and the Greek mainland coast. Crossing central Europe you see the Alps from a distance. Over the North Atlantic the left side faces south toward the Azores region. Approaching Boston the left side delivers the full harbor and skyline sequence.

During takeoff from Karpathos (AOK), sit on the Left side for the best views. Karpathos airport runway 27 departure heads west, putting the dramatic spine of Karpathos island — including Mount Kali Limni at 1,215m — on the left side. You also get a clear view back over the Aegean toward Rhodes to the southeast. Notable sights include: Mount Kali Limni (highest peak on Karpathos), the narrow central ridge of Karpathos island, the deep blue Aegean Sea channels between the Dodecanese islands, Rhodes island visible to the southeast.

When landing at General Edward Lawrence Logan International (BOS), sit on the Left side for the best views. Logan Airport's primary arrival from the west or southwest typically uses runway 04R/22L or 33L, with approaches over Boston Harbor and the city. A left window seat on westbound arrival gives you the Boston skyline, Cambridge, and the Charles River before touchdown. Notable sights include: Boston city skyline (downtown financial district towers), Boston Harbor and its islands, the Charles River separating Boston from Cambridge, Logan Airport peninsula jutting into the harbor.

The flight from Karpathos (AOK) to General Edward Lawrence Logan International (BOS) takes Approximately 11 to 12 hours (likely with a connection, as no direct service exists; total journey including connection typically 13-16 hours).

Departing the Aegean, the route crosses the Greek mainland and Balkans, then passes over central or northern Italy and the Alps, crosses France and the Bay of Biscay or English Channel, tracks over southern England or Ireland, then heads northwest across the North Atlantic. Mid-ocean the route passes well north of the Azores. Approaching North America, the coast of Newfoundland or Nova Scotia comes into view before descending toward New England.
