Which side of the plane to sit from Domodedovo International Airport (Moscow) to Verona Villafranca Airport (Villafranca)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers the most dramatic views during the final descent, including the stunning northern reaches of Lake Garda and the transition from high Alpine peaks to the lush Italian plains.
Moscow Outskirts
Bird's eye view of the sprawling Russian capital's forests and urban expansion upon departure.
Vistula River Basin
The winding path of Poland's longest river as it cuts through the central European plains.
Hohe Tauern Range
Stunning vistas of Austria's highest mountains, including snow-capped peaks and glaciers.
Lake Garda
A breathtaking view of Italy's largest lake, framed by steep cliffs at its northern tip.
Valpolicella Vineyards
The rolling green hills and famous vineyards just north of Verona during the final approach.
For morning flights, the left side avoids direct sunlight, making it ideal for photography. Keep your window shade up as you cross the Austrian-Italian border; the change from rugged mountains to the Mediterranean landscape is rapid and beautiful.
Belarusian Forests
Vast expanses of ancient woodland and wetlands passing underneath at cruising altitude.
Bohemian Massif
The rugged terrain and rolling hills of the Czech Republic visible on the horizon.
The Dolomites
Spectacular, jagged limestone peaks of the Italian Alps, known for their unique pale color.
Brenner Pass
One of the most important Alpine transit routes, visible as a deep valley cutting through the mountains.
Villafranca Castle
The historic Scaliger Castle of Villafranca is often visible just moments before touchdown.
The right side is unbeatable for viewing the unique geology of the Dolomites. In winter, these peaks are heavily snow-covered, providing a stark and beautiful contrast against the blue sky. Try to sit away from the wing to get an unobstructed view of the deep Alpine valleys.
