Glarus Alps
Stunning views of the snow-capped central Swiss peaks as the flight reaches cruising altitude.
Genoa Port

Cap Corse
The 'finger' of Corsica, showcasing steep cliffs and tiny coastal villages as you begin your final approach.
Monte Cinto Massif

Book a window seat in front of the wing for unobstructed views of the Alpine peaks. On morning flights, the left side remains shaded, providing better lighting for photography without cabin glare. Watch closely about 15 minutes before landing for the dramatic transition from the blue Mediterranean to the jagged Corsican coastline.

Calvi Citadel
The historic 13th-century Genoese citadel becomes visible as the plane banks for its final approach into CLY.
