CAG β NRN
Which side of the plane to sit from Cagliari Elmas Airport (Cagliari) to Weeze Airport (Weeze)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a superior vantage point for the central Swiss Alps and follows the iconic Rhine River during the northern leg of the journey.
Eastern Corsica
Views of the high granite peaks forming the backbone of the island of beauty.
Genoa & Liguria
The bustling port of Genoa and the colorful Italian Riviera coastline as you cross into mainland Europe.
Swiss Alps Peaks
Spectacular close-up views of the Jungfrau, Eiger, and MΓΆnch massif in central Switzerland.
Black Forest
The dark, dense evergreen forests of Southwest Germany stretching toward the horizon.
Rhine River Valley
The winding silver ribbon of the Rhine, featuring heavy barge traffic and industrial landscapes near the Ruhr.
Sit on the right for the best mountain photography; the sun is usually in the south or west during the day, illuminating the Alps perfectly. Watch for the Cologne Cathedral spires on the horizon during the final descent into Weeze.
West Sardinian Coast
Rugged limestone cliffs and hidden coves visible shortly after takeoff from Cagliari.
Scandola Nature Reserve
The dramatic red porphyry rock formations of Corsica's western UNESCO world heritage site.
Mont Blanc
On clear days, the highest peak in the Alps may be visible in the distance to the northwest.
Burgundy Vineyards
The geometric patterns of France's famous wine-growing regions during the mid-flight transit.
Ardennes Forest
Expansive green canopies and rolling hills as the flight crosses from France into the Benelux region.
Early morning flights provide soft light on the Sardinian coast. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes after takeoff for the Corsican shoreline. Look for the glint of the Meuse river near the end of the cruise phase.
