Which side of the plane to sit from Il Caravaggio International Airport (Bergamo) to Cluj-Napoca International Airport (Cluj-napoca)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a front-row seat to the dramatic peaks of the Dolomites and Julian Alps shortly after takeoff, followed by a high probability of seeing the Budapest skyline and the rugged Apuseni Mountains during descent.
Dolomites & Alps
Breathtaking views of the jagged Italian limestone peaks immediately after departing Bergamo.
Lake Garda
A stunning perspective of Italy's largest lake and its mountainous northern shoreline.
Julian Alps
The snow-capped summit of Mount Triglav and the pristine forests of Slovenia.
Budapest
A panoramic view of the Danube, the Hungarian Parliament, and the historic Buda Castle.
Apuseni Mountains
The forested ridges and deep valleys marking the entry into the Transylvania region.
Sit forward of the wing for the best mountain photography. On morning flights, this side is shaded, reducing glare for photos of the Alps. Look out 10 minutes after takeoff for the most dramatic mountain vistas.
Venice & Lagoon
Clear views of the historic canal city and the surrounding islands in the Adriatic Sea.
Lake Balaton
The 'Hungarian Sea', visible as a massive turquoise expanse in the heart of the Pannonian Basin.
Pannonian Basin
The vast, geometric agricultural patterns of the Hungarian plains stretching to the horizon.
Transylvanian Plateau
Rolling hills and historic rural landscapes as the flight enters Romanian airspace.
Cluj-Napoca Outskirts
Views of the Somesul Mic river valley and the growing urban sprawl of Transylvania's capital.
Watch for Venice about 20-25 minutes after takeoff. During late afternoon flights, the golden hour light beautifully illuminates the Hungarian plains and Lake Balaton on this side.
