Which side of the plane to sit from Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport (Kerkyra/corfu) to Ciampino–G. B. Pastine International Airport (Rome)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a stunning departure over Corfu's southern islands and an unbeatable approach into Ciampino, passing directly over the scenic volcanic lakes and the Pope's summer residence.

Corfu Old Town
The Venetian fortresses and historic center of Kerkyra immediately after takeoff.
Paxos and Antipaxos
Crystal clear blue waters surrounding these small islands south of Corfu during the climb.
Mount Vesuvius
On clear days, the silhouette of the famous volcano and the Gulf of Naples may be visible to the south.
Lake Albano
The volcanic crater lake and Castel Gandolfo are prominent landmarks during the final descent into CIA.
Castelli Romani
Lush vineyards and hillside towns south of Rome as the plane lines up with the runway.
The right side is superior for the descent into Ciampino; the plane often flies a pattern that puts Lake Albano and the Pope's summer palace right in your window. Watch for the dramatic change from the deep blue sea to the craggy Italian interior.
