What does the Hurghada to Poznan flight path pass over?
The flight path crosses the Mediterranean (Cyprus visible to the north around 2-hour mark), then traverses the Balkans including the Carpathian Mountains (visible as a north-south trending ridge system in Romania/Slovakia around 3.5-hour mark), before descending into the Polish plains. The Danube River valley is briefly visible during the Balkans crossing. Most of the route crosses high-altitude cruising over relatively featureless terrain; the Red Sea departure and Polish landing offer the most visually distinctive segments.
