Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Athens to Copenhagen. While takeoff offers coastal views, the landing approach into Copenhagen provides more dramatic and varied scenery—the Øresund Strait crossing, Swedish coastline, and the transition from rural Danish farmland to urban Copenhagen make the descent more visually rewarding than the climb-out.

During takeoff from Athens International Eleftherios Venizelos (ATH), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right-side seats offer views of the Saronic Gulf and the Attica coastline as the aircraft climbs northwestward from Athens. You'll see the irregular Greek coastline with its islands and peninsulas receding beneath you. Notable sights include: Saronic Gulf, Attica Peninsula coastline, Aegean Sea islands (Salamis, Aegina visible as small landmasses), Athens urban sprawl to the left.

When landing at Kastrup (CPH), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left-side seats provide excellent views during descent into Copenhagen. You'll see the Danish coastline, the Øresund Strait separating Denmark and Sweden, and the flat agricultural landscape of Zealand as you approach from the south. Notable sights include: Øresund Strait, Swedish coast (Scania region) across the water, Copenhagen metropolitan area and Amager Island, flat Danish farmland and forests.

The flight from Athens International Eleftherios Venizelos (ATH) to Kastrup (CPH) takes Approximately 3 hours 15 minutes.

The flight path crosses the Balkans and Central Europe. Notable features include the Pindus Mountains (visible from Athens area), the Danube River valley in Serbia/Hungary, and the flat North European Plain. The Alps are typically too far west for this routing, but the Carpathian Mountains may be visible to the east depending on exact flight path. Most of the mid-flight segment crosses relatively flat terrain with scattered forests and agricultural areas across Hungary, Slovakia, and Poland before reaching the flat Danish landscape.
