Rif Mountains
The lush, green-topped peaks of northern Morocco visible shortly after departure.
Costa del Sol
The sparkling beaches of Malaga and the Alboran Sea coastline of southern Spain.
French Riviera
Crystal clear views of the Côte d'Azur, including the iconic bays of Nice and Monaco.
Monte Rosa Massif
The second-highest mountain in the Alps, providing a majestic backdrop during the descent.
Italian Lakes
Potential views of Lake Maggiore or Lake Como depending on the specific arrival pattern into MXP.
The right side is ideal for coastal scenery. Timing is key; during afternoon flights, the 'Golden Hour' illuminates the Mediterranean coast and the Alps beautifully. Sit behind the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block your view of the Riviera and the dramatic Alpine lakes during the final approach.
