BRU β NAP
Which side of the plane to sit from Brussels Airport (Brussels) to Naples International Airport (Naples)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a superior vantage point for the highest Alpine peaks like Mont Blanc and a breathtaking approach over the islands of the Gulf of Naples and the Tyrrhenian coast.
Lake Geneva
The massive crescent-shaped lake and the city of Geneva visible near the Swiss-French border.
Mont Blanc
Aerial views of the highest peak in the Alps and its surrounding glaciers.
Tuscan Archipelago
Views of the island of Elba and the sparkling Tyrrhenian Sea along the Italian coast.
Eternal City
Distant views of Rome and the Vatican City as the flight tracks south along the coastline.
Gulf of Naples Islands
Exquisite views of Capri, Ischia, and Procida during the final turn for landing.
The right side offers the most dramatic mountain scenery crossing the Alps. On clear days, the descent over the Tyrrhenian Sea provides a stunning panorama of the islands. Choose this side for sunset flights to see the Mediterranean glow.
Brussels Skyline
Clear views of the Belgian capital and the Atomium shortly after takeoff from BRU.
Bernese Oberland
Stunning vistas of the central Swiss Alps, including the Eiger, MΓΆnch, and Jungfrau peaks.
Central Apennines
The rugged mountain spine of Italy as the flight heads south toward the Campania region.
Mount Vesuvius
The iconic volcano often dominates the view on the left side during the standard approach into Naples.
The left side is the prime choice for seeing Mount Vesuvius during the final descent. For morning flights, the sun will be behind you as you fly south, providing excellent front-lighting for the Alps and the Italian interior.
