EIN β AHO
Which side of the plane to sit from Eindhoven Airport (Eindhoven) to Alghero-Fertilia Airport (Alghero)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior sequence of landmarks, including a direct view of the Mont Blanc massif, the glitzy French Riviera coastline, and a dramatic approach over the limestone cliffs of Sardinia.
Mont Blanc Massif
Unrivaled views of Western Europe's highest peak and the dramatic glaciers surrounding the Chamonix valley.
French Riviera
A stunning panorama of the CΓ΄te d'Azur, including the cities of Nice and Cannes as the plane heads out to sea.
Corsica Coastline
The rugged western mountains of Corsica are visible as you pass the island mid-flight over the Mediterranean.
Capo Caccia Cliffs
On the final approach to Alghero, enjoy the massive limestone cliffs and the Neptune's Grotto area.
Sardinian Vineyards
Low-altitude views of the patchwork agricultural fields and vineyards surrounding Alghero-Fertilia.
The right side is the 'photographer's choice' for this route. Ensure your window is clean for the Mont Blanc pass, which usually occurs 45-60 minutes into the flight. During the descent, the right side typically offers the most dramatic views of the Sardinian coastline and the famous Capo Caccia promontory.
Maastricht & Ardennes
Early views of the historic city of Maastricht followed by the rolling green hills of the Belgian Ardennes forest.
Swiss Bernese Alps
Spectacular distant views of the snow-capped peaks of the Eiger, Monch, and Jungfrau as you cross Central Europe.
Ligurian Sea
The deep blue waters of the Mediterranean as the flight leaves the mainland near the Italian-French border.
Northern Sardinia
Aerial views of the rugged northeastern Gallura coastline and the emerald waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Sit on the left for softer morning light during southbound flights. Keep an eye out for the distinctive silhouette of the Matterhorn in the distance while crossing over Switzerland. This side is often better for seeing the sunrise if your flight is very early.
