EIN → NAP
Which side of the plane to sit from Eindhoven Airport (Eindhoven) to Naples International Airport (Naples)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers the most dramatic views of the Central Alps and a spectacular perspective of Mount Vesuvius and the city of Naples upon approach.
Rhine River Meanders
Visible shortly after departure, following the winding path of the Rhine through Germany.
Swiss Alps Peaks
Aerial views of the jagged, snow-capped peaks of the Bernese Oberland and Central Switzerland.
Italian Lakes
Spot the deep blue waters of Lake Como or Lake Garda as you cross into Northern Italy.
Tuscan Countryside
Rolling hills and vineyards of Tuscany are visible during the cruise down the Italian peninsula.
Mount Vesuvius
An iconic view of the volcano's crater as the aircraft maneuvers for landing at NAP.
Choose a seat behind the wing for unobstructed photos of the Alps. The best lighting occurs on morning flights when the sun is positioned to the southeast, illuminating the peaks. During the final 10 minutes, stay alert for the Vesuvius crater which dominates the landscape on the left during the standard Runway 24 approach.
Black Forest
Dense, dark green canopies of the Schwarzwald region in southwestern Germany.
Mont Blanc
In the distance, the highest peak in the Alps can often be spotted on the horizon.
Ligurian Coastline
Aerial perspectives of the Italian Riviera and the Mediterranean sea as you track south.
Rome & Vatican City
On clear days, the sprawl of the Eternal City and the dome of St. Peter's are visible to the west.
Islands of Ischia & Procida
During the descent, these volcanic islands appear in the turquoise waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea.
The right side is ideal for coastal enthusiasts. On afternoon flights, be prepared for significant sun glare and heat. Watch for the Tyrrhenian islands (Ponza, Ischia) about 15 minutes before landing. If the flight circles over the sea for landing, this side provides a stunning panoramic view of the entire Bay of Naples.
