Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side features the most dramatic views of the high Alps, including Mont Blanc, and typically offers the best perspective of the Leaning Tower during descent.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🏙️

Greater London

Views of the urban sprawl and landmarks of the UK capital.

🏔️

Mont Blanc

The highest peak in the Alps is often visible on the right.

🌊

Ligurian Sea

The sparkling blue waters of the coast near the border of France and Italy.

🏰

Leaning Tower

If landing on Runway 04, the iconic tower is visible on the right.

The right side is superior for Alpine scenery and the final approach into Pisa. Request a window seat away from the wing to maximize the view of the Leaning Tower before touchdown. During midday flights, the sun will be behind you on this side, providing perfect lighting for photos.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🌊

English Channel

The crossing from the British Isles to mainland Europe.

🏔️

Swiss Alps

Sweeping views of the eastern Swiss peaks and alpine lakes.

⛰️

Apennine Mountains

The rugged spine of Italy as you enter the Tuscany region.

🍷

Tuscan Hills

Rolling landscapes of vineyards and cypress trees during descent.

Choose the left side for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise reflecting off the Alps. This side is often better if the flight path takes a more easterly route over Switzerland, providing a wider perspective of the mountain range.
