Genoa Harbor
The massive shipping port and the tightly packed colorful architecture of the Italian Riviera.
Cinque Terre
The rugged and world-famous coastline featuring steep cliffs and turquoise waters of the Ligurian Sea.
Pisa Cityscape
A breathtaking view of the Leaning Tower and the Cathedral as the plane aligns with the runway.
The right side is superior for coastal scenery. During the descent, the aircraft typically circles over the sea, offering a wide view of the Italian coast. Aim for a window seat in front of or behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of Mont Blanc approximately midway through the journey.
