Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side of the aircraft offers a spectacular parade of alpine scenery, featuring the turquoise waters of Lake Balaton, the jagged Julian Alps, and the world-famous Italian Dolomites.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
πŸ’§

Lake Balaton

Central Europe's largest freshwater lake, identifiable by its unique turquoise color and elongated shape.

⛰️

Julian Alps

The limestone peaks of Slovenia, including Mount Triglav, offering a rugged and dramatic skyline.

πŸ”οΈ

The Dolomites

UNESCO World Heritage peaks featuring sheer vertical walls and jagged pinnacles visible throughout the Italian leg.

🚀

Lake Garda

The deep blue waters of Italy's largest lake, framed by steep mountains as you begin the final descent.

🏰

Bergamo CittΓ  Alta

The historic walled upper city of Bergamo, visible just moments before the wheels touch down at BGY.

This side is the premier choice for mountain photography. For the most dramatic views of the Dolomites, book a late afternoon flight when the sun hits the limestone faces, creating a warm glow. During the winter months, these peaks are heavily snow-covered, offering incredible contrast. Keep your camera ready about 15 minutes before landing for the best shots of Lake Garda.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🚜

Pannonian Plains

Expansive agricultural landscapes stretching across western Romania into the heart of Hungary.

🌊

Gulf of Trieste

Where the northernmost point of the Adriatic Sea meets the Italian and Slovenian coastlines.

πŸ›Ά

Venice Lagoon

The iconic silhouette of the historic island city and its surrounding marshes during clear weather.

πŸ™οΈ

Po Valley Cities

A bird's-eye view of northern Italian urban centers like Padua and Vicenza set against the flat plains.

The left side is ideal for morning flights to benefit from soft, direct sunlight without harsh glare. Watch for the Venice Lagoon roughly 25 minutes before landing; it appears as a distinct cluster of islands in a shallow green bay. If the flight path is slightly more southern, you might see the peaks of the Apennine Mountains on the horizon.
