Which side of the plane to sit from Alghero-Fertilia Airport (Alghero) to Il Caravaggio International Airport (Bergamo)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side offers a more diverse array of landmarks, including the stunning Sardinian archipelago, the rugged interior of Corsica, and the famous islands of the Tuscan coast.
Costa Smeralda
The world-famous emerald coast of northeast Sardinia shortly after takeoff.
Corsican Mountains
The high, rugged granite peaks of central Corsica, including Monte Cinto.
Elba Island
Napoleon's place of exile and the largest island of the Tuscan Archipelago.
Pisa & Livorno
The bustling port of Livorno and the city of Pisa can be seen as you approach the mainland.
Apennine Range
The green and brown ridges of the Northern Apennines as you cross into the Po Valley.
Milan Skyline
The distant skyscrapers of Milan's financial district are visible shortly before landing.
The right side is superior for coastal geography. Look out early for the Maddalena Archipelago. During afternoon flights, be prepared for bright sunlight; however, this side offers the best lighting for the Tuscan islands and the Apennine foothills.
Asinara Island
The protected national park island off the northwest tip of Sardinia with crystal clear waters.
Ligurian Sea
Vast blue expanses and occasional sightings of the French Riviera in the far distance.
Western Alps
Panoramic views of the snow-capped peaks of the Aosta Valley as you cross into northern Italy.
Lake Como
On the final approach to Bergamo, the iconic Y-shaped lake is often visible to the northwest.
Monza Circuit
The historic Formula 1 track can sometimes be spotted during the descent into the Milan area.
Sit on the left for the best views of the Alps during the descent. For morning flights, this side will be shaded, which is better for photography as it avoids direct sun glare and window reflections.
