Which side of the plane to sit from Ciampino–G. B. Pastine International Airport (Rome) to Poznań-Ławica Airport (Poznan)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a more dramatic perspective of Rome's historic core upon departure and prime views of the jagged Dolomites and the Czech capital.
Rome City Center
Aerial views of the Vatican, Colosseum, and Tiber river shortly after taking off from Ciampino.
The Dolomites
Spectacular views of the pale, jagged limestone peaks in the northern Italian Alps.
Prague
On clear days, the red roofs and spires of the Czech capital are visible as the flight heads north.
Bohemian Forest
Dense green canopies and rolling hills marking the border regions of Central Europe.
For the best experience, book a morning flight to avoid the afternoon sun glare on this side. During the first 10 minutes, stay alert for Rome's landmarks. In winter, the snow-covered Alps are the absolute highlight of the journey, so keep your camera ready about 45 minutes into the flight.
Central Apennines
The rugged 'spine' of Italy featuring deep valleys and ancient hilltop villages.
Adriatic Coast
Glimpses of the coastline near Venice and the sparkling blue waters of the Gulf of Trieste.
Austrian High Alps
Glaciated peaks and high-altitude reservoirs of the Hohe Tauern range.
Wrocław
The 'City of Bridges' in Poland, recognizable by its unique layout on the Oder River.
Polish Plains
The geometric patterns of the fertile agricultural lands of Greater Poland approaching Poznań.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as you'll be oriented away from the direct sun. Watch for the dramatic transition from the high Alps to the flat landscapes of Central Europe. If the flight path takes a more easterly route, you might catch views of the Tatra Mountains in the distance.
