About This Route
Which side of the plane should I sit on flying from Antalya (AYT) to Stansted (STN)?
Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Antalya to London. The takeoff from Antalya offers more dramatic and distinctive scenery—the Taurus Mountains are a major, visually striking feature. While the landing approach over England is pleasant, it's less visually dramatic than the Mediterranean mountain landscape at departure.
What can I see during takeoff from Antalya in Antalya?
During takeoff from Antalya (AYT), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right-side seats offer immediate views of the Taurus Mountains rising steeply inland from Antalya's coast. The climb-out heads northwest, so right-side passengers see the dramatic snow-capped peaks and deep valleys of this major mountain range as the aircraft gains altitude. Notable sights include: Taurus Mountains (Toros Dağları), Mediterranean coastline near Antalya, Antalya city and harbor, foothills and pine forests of southern Anatolia.
What can I see when landing at Stansted in London?
When landing at Stansted (STN), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left-side seats provide excellent views during the descent approach to Stansted. The aircraft descends from the northeast over Essex, and left-side passengers see the Thames estuary, London's sprawl, and the patchwork of English countryside and towns leading to the airport. Notable sights include: Thames estuary and river valley, London metropolitan area and urban sprawl, Essex countryside and agricultural fields, North Sea coast in far distance.
