BSL β NAP
Which side of the plane to sit from EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg Airport (Mulhouse) to Naples International Airport (Naples)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior panorama of the high Alps, including views towards Mont Blanc, followed by a stunning coastal descent over the Tyrrhenian Sea and the islands of the Gulf of Naples.
Western Alpine Giants
On clear days, see the silhouette of the Matterhorn and the distant massif of Mont Blanc.
Lake Maggiore
View of the Borromean Islands and the transition from mountains to the Lombardy plains.
Tyrrhenian Coastline
The rugged coast of Tuscany and the Maremma region as the flight heads south.
Ischia and Procida
The colorful volcanic islands in the Gulf of Naples visible during the final banking turns.
Capri and Sorrento
Views of the Faraglioni rocks and the steep cliffs of the Sorrento Peninsula in the distance.
Choose the right side for sunset flights to witness the sun dipping into the Tyrrhenian Sea. It also provides the best perspective of the Pontine Islands and the northern approach to the Gulf.
Bernese Oberland
Spectacular views of the Eiger, MΓΆnch, and Jungfrau peaks as you cross the Swiss Alps.
Lake Lucerne
The winding, fjord-like arms of the lake are visible shortly after reaching cruising altitude.
Bologna and Apennines
The red rooftops of Bologna and the rolling ridges of the northern Apennine Mountains.
Mount Vesuvius
A breathtaking view of the volcano's crater and the Somma Ridge during the standard approach into Naples.
Naples Historic Center
High-altitude view of the densely packed UNESCO World Heritage city center just before landing.
Sit on the left for the most direct view of Mount Vesuvius during the descent. Morning flights are ideal to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Alps and the Italian landscape without glare.
