DME β RMI
Which side of the plane to sit from Domodedovo International Airport (Moscow) to Federico Fellini International Airport (Rimini)?
Left Side of the Plane
The Left Side is preferred for this route because it provides a spectacular aerial view of the turquoise Adriatic coast and a rare opportunity to spot the towers of San Marino during the final descent.
Russian Taiga
Dense mixed forests and winding rivers south of the Moscow metropolitan area shortly after takeoff.
Lake Balaton
The 'Hungarian Sea' is clearly visible with its elongated shape and pale green waters in Western Hungary.
Dinaric Alps
Dramatic limestone karst landscapes as the flight passes over Croatia and the Balkan Peninsula.
Adriatic Archipelago
Stunning views of the scattered islands along the Croatian coastline before crossing the sea.
San Marino
The historic Mount Titano and the three towers of the world's oldest republic are visible on the left during descent.
Sit in front of the wing to capture the Adriatic colors without engine glare. For the best lighting, book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the coastline. Keep your camera ready as you pass Ravenna to spot the distinct silhouette of the Apennine Mountains.
High Tatras
Snow-capped peaks forming the natural border between Poland and Slovakia visible on clear days.
Vienna Basin
The expansive plains of Eastern Austria and the Danube river basin as the flight heads southwest.
Julian Alps
Jagged, high-altitude mountain peaks across the border of Slovenia and Northern Italy.
Po Valley
The highly organized agricultural patterns and industrial heartland of Northern Italy during descent.
Rimini Riviera
A long, continuous stretch of sandy beaches and the iconic Ferris wheel as the plane aligns for landing.
The right side offers great mountain scenery mid-flight. If the flight path takes a northern loop, you may see the outskirts of Warsaw. Late afternoon flights on this side provide a beautiful golden hour glow over the Italian plains, but be aware of the direct sun which can be quite bright.
