Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Tel-aviv to Vienna. Right side scores higher due to the dramatic Alpine scenery during the landing approach into Vienna, which outweighs the modest Mediterranean takeoff views from Tel Aviv. The Eastern Alps and Danube valley provide significant terrain variety and recognizable landmarks, while the left side's Hungarian plains offer minimal visual interest for most of the flight.

During takeoff from Ben Gurion (TLV), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left side captures Tel Aviv's Mediterranean coastline and urban harbor during departure, with the city sprawl visible below. Right side faces inland toward the Judean Hills with less dramatic urban scenery. Notable sights include: Tel Aviv waterfront and port facilities, Mediterranean Sea extending westward, Judean Hills ridge to the east.

When landing at Schwechat (VIE), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right side offers superior Alpine scenery during descent into Vienna. The Eastern Alps dominate the approach, with the Danube River valley visible below, plus the Carpathian foothills to the east. Left side shows mostly flat Hungarian plains with minimal terrain variation. Notable sights include: Eastern Alps (Wienerwald range), Danube River and its valley, Vienna's urban sprawl and Danube bends, Carpathian foothills on the horizon.

The flight from Ben Gurion (TLV) to Schwechat (VIE) takes 4h 25m.
