Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers unparalleled views of the rugged Corsican interior and a breathtaking approach into Cuneo with the iconic Monviso peak dominating the horizon.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏖️

Gulf of Cagliari

Aerial view of the Poetto beach and the Molentargius salt works immediately after takeoff from CAG.

⛰️

Corsican Highlands

Detailed views of the granite peaks of central Corsica, including Monte Cinto, often dusted with snow.

🌊

Ligurian Coastline

The dramatic transition from the deep blue Ligurian Sea to the steep, colorful cliffs near Sanremo.

🏔️

Monviso

The 'King of Stone', a pyramid-shaped peak that is the highest in the Cottian Alps, visible during the final descent.

✈️

Maritime Alps

Dense alpine forests and limestone crags of the Mercantour and Alpi Marittime National Parks.

Sit on the left for the most dramatic mountain scenery. Morning flights provide the best lighting for the Corsican peaks without glare. During winter, look for the 'Alpenglow' on Monviso if flying near sunset. Keep your camera ready as you cross the Italian coastline near Albenga for the best mountain-to-sea contrast.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
💎

Costa Smeralda

Distances views of the turquoise waters and luxury harbors of Northeast Sardinia.

🏝️

Tuscan Archipelago

Clear views of the islands of Elba, Capraia, and Gorgona dotting the Tyrrhenian Sea.

🏙️

Genoa Harbor

The busy port of Genoa and the sprawling urban coastline of the Italian Riviera.

🍷

Langhe Vineyards

The UNESCO-listed rolling hills of Barolo and Barbaresco, showcasing a patchwork of world-famous vineyards.

🏢

Turin Skyline

On clear days, the Mole Antonelliana and the urban sprawl of Turin are visible to the north.

Choose the right side if you prefer coastal geography and island spotting. This side is particularly beautiful in the late afternoon when the sun illuminates the Langhe hills and the Tuscan islands. It is also the better side for seeing the vastness of the Po Valley as you approach the airport from the south.
