BSL → SPU
Which side of the plane to sit from EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg Airport (Mulhouse) to Split Airport (Split)?
Right Side of the Plane
While both sides offer stunning views of the Alps, the Right Side typically provides a superior vantage point for the iconic peaks of the Bernese Oberland and a breathtaking panoramic approach over the Dalmatian Islands into Split.
Bernese Oberland
Spectacular views of the 'Big Three': the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks.
Italian Lakes
Bird's-eye views of Lake Maggiore and Lake Como nestled at the foot of the mountains.
Milan & Po Valley
The sprawling urban landscape of Milan and the fertile plains of Northern Italy.
Dalmatian Archipelago
Incredible views of the islands of Šolta, Brač, and Hvar during the descent into Split.
Trogir Heritage Site
The UNESCO-listed medieval island town of Trogir is often visible seconds before landing.
For the best Alpine photography, a morning flight provides the best light hitting the peaks. As the plane descends into Split (SPU), it often performs a turn over the sea, giving the right side a 'front-row' view of the turquoise waters and islands. Choose a seat forward of the wing for the clearest views of the terrain.
Central Swiss Alps
Dramatic views of the Glarus and Appenzell mountain ranges shortly after departure.
Venetian Lagoon
On clear days, the historic city of Venice and its intricate network of canals are visible to the north.
Istrian Peninsula
The distinct heart-shaped coastline of northern Croatia where the land meets the deep blue Adriatic.
Velebit Mountains
The rugged, white karst limestone peaks that run parallel to the Croatian coastline.
The left side is excellent for spotting Venice mid-flight. During the final descent, you will see the rugged coastline and the Dinaric Alps. Use a morning flight to avoid the direct glare of the southern sun.
