CUF β AHO
Which side of the plane to sit from Cuneo International Airport (Cuneo) to Alghero-Fertilia Airport (Alghero)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular vantage point of the Maritime Alps during takeoff, the glamour of the French Riviera, and the iconic limestone cliffs of Capo Caccia during the final approach into Alghero.
Monviso & Maritime Alps
Immediate views after takeoff of the 'Stone King' (Monviso) and the dramatic alpine border between Italy and France.
The CΓ΄te d'Azur
Panoramic vistas of Nice, Cannes, and the red rocks of the Esterel Massif as the plane crosses the Ligurian Sea.
Gulf of Porto
A UNESCO World Heritage site on the western Corsican coast featuring dramatic red porphyry inlets.
Capo Caccia
The massive limestone promontory housing Neptune's Grotto, visible just moments before landing at Fertilia.
The right side is superior for late afternoon flights to catch the golden hour over the Mediterranean. Keep your camera ready immediately after takeoff for the Alps and 10 minutes before landing for the spectacular Alghero coastline.
Savona and the Ligurian Coast
Aerial view of the industrial port of Savona and the winding 'Riviera delle Palme' coastline.
Capraia and Gorgona
Distant sightings of the northernmost islands of the Tuscan Archipelago in the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Corsican Massifs
The rugged, snow-capped peaks of central Corsica, including Monte Cinto, visible across the interior.
Strait of Bonifacio
The narrow, turquoise channel separating the southern tip of Corsica from northern Sardinia.
Sit on the left for softer morning light and better views of the Tuscan Archipelago. During the descent, you will have a better view of the northern Sardinian interior and the Gallura region's granite landscapes.
