Which side of the plane to sit from EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg Airport (Mulhouse) to Brindisi – Salento Airport (Brindisi)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a front-row seat to the most iconic peaks of the Bernese Oberland and follows the rugged spine of the Apennine Mountains across Italy.
Bernese Oberland
Incredible close-ups of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks just minutes after takeoff.
Lake Lucerne
The intricate, fjord-like arms of the lake surrounded by steep mountains.
Milan & Lombardy
Views of Italy's fashion capital and the sprawling metropolitan landscape.
Apennine Spine
The long mountain range that forms the backbone of the Italian peninsula.
Gran Sasso d'Italia
The highest peak in the Apennines, often snow-capped well into late spring.
Puglia Olive Groves
A vast 'sea' of silver-green olive trees as the aircraft approaches Salento.
Keep your camera ready immediately after takeoff from BSL; the Alps transition happens very quickly. Afternoon flights provide the best lighting for the Apennine peaks, though the sun will be on this side.
Central Swiss Alps
Dramatic views of the eastern Swiss massifs and glaciers shortly after departure.
Bologna & Po Valley
The dense urban grid of Bologna and the industrial heart of Northern Italy.
San Marino
The distinct silhouette of Mount Titano and the world's oldest republic.
Adriatic Riviera
Continuous views of the sandy coastline from Rimini down to Ancona.
Gargano Peninsula
The lush green 'spur' of the Italian boot protruding into the blue sea.
Choose the left side for morning flights to minimize sun glare and capture clear photos of the Adriatic coastline. During the descent into Brindisi, look for the turquoise reef patterns near the shore.
