Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Athens to Keffallinia. Right-side seats offer superior views for both takeoff (Corinthian Gulf and Peloponnese as you climb) and especially for landing (Kefallinia's dramatic island terrain and approach to Argostoli Bay). The westbound flight path favors right-side geography.

During takeoff from Athinai (HEW), sit on the Left side for the best views. Athens typically departs runway 03L/03R (northbound) or 21L/21R (southbound). Left seats offer the best view of the Saronic Gulf and the Attica coastline as you climb northwest toward Kefallinia. You'll see the urban sprawl of Athens receding below and the Corinthian Gulf opening up ahead. Notable sights include: Saronic Gulf (immediate south), Attica Peninsula coastline, Corinthian Gulf (northwest), Mount Parnassus (distant north on horizon).

When landing at Kefallinia (EFL), sit on the Right side for the best views. Kefallinia's runway 09/27 typically uses 09 for landing (eastbound approach). Right-side seats provide the clearest view of the island's dramatic terrain during descent—the Ionian Sea, the island's mountainous spine, and the approach over Argostoli Bay. You'll see the island's distinctive shape and the surrounding smaller islands of the Ionian archipelago. Notable sights include: Ionian Sea (west and south), Kefallinia's central mountain ridge, Argostoli Bay (east side), Zakynthos Island (south, smaller and lower profile).

The flight from Athinai (HEW) to Kefallinia (EFL) takes Approximately 50-60 minutes.

The flight crosses the Corinthian Gulf heading northwest, passing over the Peloponnese's northern coast. You'll see the Gulf of Patras open up, and the Ionian Islands begin to appear—Ithaca and Lefkada will be visible to the south and west. The landscape transitions from mainland Greece's populated coastal areas to the more remote, mountainous Ionian archipelago. The sea color shifts from the Aegean's lighter blue to the Ionian's deeper blue-green.
