Which side of the plane to sit from Marina Di Campo Airport (Marina Di Campo) to Zürich Airport (Zurich)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers an exceptional perspective of the Ligurian coastline and a more dramatic panoramic view of the Western Swiss Alps and large glacial lakes during the descent.
Capraia Island
A rugged volcanic island in the Tuscan Archipelago visible shortly after departure.
Ligurian Coastline
Stunning aerial views of the Italian Riviera and the dramatic cliffs of the Cinque Terre region.
Western Alps
A continuous panorama of snow-capped peaks as the flight traverses the border into Switzerland.
Lake Maggiore
One of Italy's largest lakes, nestled between the pre-Alps and the high mountain ranges.
Lake Lucerne
The complex, multi-branched lake surrounded by steep mountains visible during the initial descent.
Choose a morning flight for the best lighting on the Italian coast. In clear weather, you may even spot the distant silhouette of Corsica to the west. This side is superior for seeing the highest concentration of alpine peaks before landing.
Elba Shoreline
Excellent views of Marina di Campo's beaches and the island's mountainous interior during takeoff.
Tuscan Archipelago
Clear views of the smaller islands like Pianosa and Gorgona dotting the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Apennine Mountains
The green, forested ridges of northern Italy stretching across the horizon.
Central Swiss Alps
Deep glaciated valleys and high peaks of the Glarus Alps during the northern traverse.
Lake Zurich
A full view of the long, narrow lake and the city of Zurich during the final approach.
The right side is perfect for afternoon flights to avoid direct sun glare. It provides the best perspective of Elba's coastline immediately after departure. Look for the Po Valley and the city of Milan as you transition from the Apennines to the Alps.
