Which side of the plane to sit from Málaga Airport (Malaga) to Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport (Bologna)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a spectacular vantage point of the Mediterranean coastline, the glitzy French Riviera, and the majestic Maritime Alps before descending into the heart of Northern Italy.
Málaga and Costa del Sol
Panoramic views of the city's port, the Alcazaba fortress, and the rugged Andalusian coastline during departure.
Sierra Nevada
Clear views of mainland Spain's highest peaks, often snow-capped during the winter and spring months.
French Riviera
A stunning perspective of the Côte d'Azur, including the iconic bays of Cannes, Nice, and the city-state of Monaco.
Maritime Alps
Dramatic mountain scenery where the Alps descend into the sea along the French-Italian border.
Po Valley
The geometric patterns of Italy's most fertile agricultural plains as the plane aligns for its final approach.
Book an 'A' window seat for the most consistent land views. For morning flights, this side is shaded, providing the best lighting for photography without cabin glare. During winter, look for the sharp contrast between the white Sierra Nevada and the blue Mediterranean.
Alboran Sea
Uninterrupted views of the turquoise and deep blue waters connecting the Atlantic to the Mediterranean.
Balearic Islands
Distant views of Ibiza and Mallorca as the flight path crosses the Mediterranean towards the Gulf of Lion.
Cap Corse
The northernmost tip of Corsica, appearing as a rugged finger of land in the middle of the Ligurian Sea.
Ligurian Coast
Views of the Italian Riviera, including the Portofino peninsula and the Cinque Terre region.
Apennine Mountains
The 'spine of Italy' provides a scenic backdrop of rolling green hills and valleys during the descent into Bologna.
The right side is ideal for catching the glint of the sun on the water. On late afternoon flights, you may witness a beautiful sunset over the Mediterranean. During the final approach, look for the Sanctuary of the Madonna di San Luca perched on a hill south of Bologna.
