Which side of the plane to sit from Barcelona International Airport (Barcelona) to Il Caravaggio International Airport (Bergamo)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers a continuous and breathtaking panorama of the Mediterranean coastline, featuring the world-famous French Riviera and the Ligurian coast.
Costa Brava
The rugged 'Wild Coast' of Catalonia, characterized by hidden coves and dramatic rocky cliffs.
French Riviera
A stunning sequence of iconic coastal cities including Cannes, Antibes, and the Baie des Anges in Nice.
Monaco
The densely packed, high-rise luxury of the Principality is clearly visible from cruising altitude.
Port of Genoa
Italy's largest seaport, where the city climbs steeply from the Mediterranean into the Apennine foothills.
Ligurian Apennines
The mountain range that separates the Mediterranean coast from the flat plains of the Po Valley.
The right side is the premier choice for coastal enthusiasts. For the best experience, book an afternoon flight when the sun illuminates the white cliffs and turquoise waters of the Côte d'Azur. Ensure you look out about 40 minutes into the flight for the best view of Monaco.
Barcelona Urban Grid
Exquisite views of the Eixample district and the Sagrada Família immediately following takeoff from El Prat.
Montserrat Massif
The distinctive multi-peaked serrated mountain range located northwest of Barcelona.
Camargue Wetlands
The vast salt pans and lagoons of the Rhône Delta, often displaying vibrant pink and blue hues.
Massif des Écrins
Distant views of the high, glaciated peaks of the Southern French Alps to the north.
Milan Skyline
As the flight descends toward Bergamo, look for the skyscrapers of the Porta Nuova district and the San Siro stadium.
Sit on the left for the best views of Barcelona's architecture during departure and the modern Milanese skyline during the descent. Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you, providing clear lighting for photography of the Pyrenees and Alps in the distance.
