Which side of the plane to sit from Ciampino–G. B. Pastine International Airport (Rome) to Karlsruhe Baden-Baden Airport (Karlsruhe/Baden-Baden)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a breathtaking perspective of the high Swiss Alpine peaks and the scenic Rhine River valley during the final descent into Baden-Baden.
Bernese Oberland
Stunning views of the highest Swiss peaks including the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau.
Lake Maggiore
A beautiful glacial lake straddling the border of Italy and Switzerland.
Alsace Plain
The picturesque vineyards of the French Rhine region visible during the descent.
Tyrrhenian Coast
Brief views of the Italian coastline and the Mediterranean shortly after takeoff.
Sit ahead of the wing for an unobstructed view of the high Alps. On morning flights, the sun is behind you, providing perfect lighting for photos of the Swiss mountains.
Rome and Vatican City
A bird's-eye view of the Eternal City and the iconic dome of St. Peter's during initial climb.
The Apennines
The rugged spine of Italy featuring rolling hills and ancient mountain villages.
Lake Constance
A massive body of water known as the Bodensee where Germany, Switzerland, and Austria meet.
Black Forest
The dense, mythical evergreen forests of Southwestern Germany unfolding before landing.
Watch for the transition from the jagged Apennines to the flatter Po Valley. Seasonal snow cover in the Black Forest during winter makes this side particularly magical.
