Capo Caccia
Immediately after takeoff, witness the massive limestone promontory and vertical cliffs plunging into the Mediterranean.
Western Corsica Coast
View the jagged red granite cliffs of the Scandola Nature Reserve and the deep gulfs of Porto and Ajaccio.
Ligurian Sea
A vast expanse of deep blue water often dotted with ferries and cargo ships traveling between France and Italy.
Maritime Alps
The snow-capped peaks of the border region between Italy and France appear as the plane approaches the mainland.
Monviso Peak
The 'King of Stone', a distinctive pyramid-shaped mountain that is the highest in the Cottian Alps, visible during descent.
Sit on the left for the best morning light on the Corsican mountains. During the descent into Cuneo, look for the sharp silhouette of Monviso; it is the most prominent peak in the region. If the flight is in winter, the contrast between the white Alps and the dark Mediterranean is breathtaking.
