Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Heraklion to Prague. While the takeoff from Heraklion favors left seats for Aegean views, the landing approach into Prague from the southwest makes right seats the superior choice overall. The descent provides dramatic views of the Vltava River, Prague Castle, and the city's historic core—more visually rewarding than the departure scenery.

During takeoff from Nikos Kazantzakis (HER), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left seats offer views of the Cretan coastline and the Aegean Sea immediately after departure. The aircraft climbs northwestward, and left-side passengers see the island's northern shore, including the Bay of Souda and the White Mountains in the distance. Notable sights include: Cretan coastline, Bay of Souda, Aegean Sea, White Mountains (Lefka Ori).

When landing at Ruzyne (PRG), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right seats provide excellent views during the descent into Prague. The aircraft approaches from the southwest, and right-side passengers see the Vltava River winding through the city, Prague Castle on the left bank, and the surrounding Bohemian Plateau with its forested hills. Notable sights include: Vltava River, Prague Castle, Old Town Square area, Bohemian Plateau forests.

The flight from Nikos Kazantzakis (HER) to Ruzyne (PRG) takes 3h 15m.

The flight path crosses the Balkans, passing over the Pindus Mountains in northwestern Greece, then continues over Albania and the former Yugoslav republics. Passengers may glimpse Lake Ohrid on the left (Albania-North Macedonia border), the Dinaric Alps, and eventually the Danube River valley as the aircraft approaches Central Europe. The route typically follows a northwest corridor over Serbia and into the Bohemian Plateau.
