Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the majestic Swiss Alps and a spectacular descent over Lake Garda, which is often the highlight of the journey into Verona.

Right Side Highlights
9.2
🌊

Lake Constance

A massive lake where Germany, Switzerland, and Austria meet, often shimmering blue in the sunlight.

πŸ”οΈ

Bernese Oberland

Unrivaled views of the Eiger, MΓΆnch, and Jungfrau massifs, featuring year-round snow and glaciers.

πŸ’Ž

Lake Garda

Italy's largest lake, appearing deep blue and surrounded by steep mountains as the plane begins its final approach.

🏰

Sirmione Peninsula

The iconic thin strip of land reaching into Lake Garda, home to the Scaliger Castle and Roman ruins.

🏟️

Verona Arena

On the final bank toward Villafranca, you can often spot the ancient Roman amphitheater in the city center.

This is the 'scenic side' for the descent. For the best photos of Lake Garda, choose a seat behind the wing to capture the engine and the water. Afternoon flights offer the warmest light on the Italian landscapes. Be ready about 20 minutes before landing for the most dramatic Alpine crossing.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
πŸ™οΈ

Amsterdam & Canals

Aerial view of the historic canal belt and the dense urban layout of the Dutch capital shortly after takeoff.

🌲

The Black Forest

Dense evergreen forests and rolling hills of southwestern Germany visible during mid-flight.

πŸ”οΈ

Engadine Alps

Rugged eastern Swiss peaks and high-altitude valleys near the Italian border.

πŸ‡

Adige Valley

Lush vineyards and dramatic limestone cliffs flanking the river as you enter Northern Italy.

Sit on this side during morning flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. It provides excellent views of the Rhine river's winding path through Germany. If the flight path takes a more easterly route, you might catch a glimpse of the Dolomites in the distance to the left.
