Which side of the plane to sit from Brussels South Charleroi Airport (Charleroi) to Pescara International Airport (Pescara)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an unrivaled panorama of the highest peaks in the Swiss and Italian Alps, including the Mont Blanc massif, followed by a scenic descent along the Italian coastline.
Mont Blanc & Matterhorn
The snow-capped giants of the Western Alps dominate the skyline shortly after crossing the French border.
Lake Como & Maggiore
Stunning aerial views of the deep blue, Y-shaped Italian lakes surrounded by luxury villas.
Milan & Po Valley
The vast industrial and urban sprawl of Northern Italy's fashion capital.
Apennine Mountains
The rugged 'backbone' of Italy, featuring limestone peaks and ancient hilltop villages.
Adriatic Riviera
A continuous strip of golden beaches and colorful umbrellas stretching from Rimini to Pescara.
Sit on the right for the most dramatic mountain photography, especially during winter when the Alps are fully snow-covered. For the approach into Pescara, the right side usually provides a closer view of the city and the Maiella massif in the distance as the plane turns for landing.
Ardennes Forest
Dense green canopies and winding river valleys across Southern Belgium and Luxembourg.
Eastern Swiss Alps
Glaciated peaks and high-altitude lakes of the Central and Eastern Swiss ranges.
Lake Garda
Italy's largest lake, visible as a deep blue 'V' shape nestled between mountain ridges.
San Marino
The microstate's iconic Three Towers atop Mount Titano are often visible during the descent.
Adriatic Horizon
Uninterrupted views of the turquoise sea as the flight levels off over the Italian peninsula.
Choose the left side for morning flights to enjoy the soft sunrise over the Adriatic Sea. This side is also better for spotting the unique geography of San Marino and the Conero Regional Park near Ancona during the final 20 minutes of the flight.
