CAG → PSR
Which side of the plane to sit from Cagliari Elmas Airport (Cagliari) to Pescara International Airport (Pescara)?
Right Side of the Plane
While both sides offer stunning views of the Apennine Mountains, the right side is superior for its initial views of Sardinia's rugged eastern coastline and the spectacular approach over the Majella Massif toward the Adriatic Sea.

Poetto Beach
A stunning view of Cagliari's main urban beach and the 'Sella del Diavolo' limestone promontory.
Gulf of Orosei
The dramatic point where the mountains of the Supramonte drop vertically into the turquoise sea.
Pontine Islands
Views of the volcanic archipelago, including Ponza and Ventotene, dotting the sea halfway to the mainland.
Majella Massif
An impressive view of the 'Mother Mountain' of Abruzzo, appearing as a massive high-altitude plateau.
Costa dei Trabocchi
As the plane descends into Pescara, look for the traditional wooden fishing platforms along the Adriatic shore.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun will be behind the aircraft, illuminating the Sardinian coast and the Majella mountains. Watch for the sudden transition from high mountain peaks to the sea within just a few minutes of flight time.
