Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side is preferred for its spectacular views of the Venetian Lagoon, the jagged peaks of the Dolomites, and the high Alpine glaciers of Austria before descending into the Czech Republic.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
⛰️

Apennine Peaks

The rugged spine of Italy, including views of Gran Sasso and the Sibillini Mountains during the climb.

🛶

Venice Lagoon

Depending on the specific flight path, you can often see the unique shape of Venice and the Lido island in the Adriatic.

🏔️

The Dolomites

Iconic, jagged limestone cathedrals of rock including the Sella Group and the distinctive Tre Cime di Lavaredo.

❄️

Hohe Tauern

Breathtaking views of the Großglockner, Austria's highest peak, and its surrounding glacial landscapes.

💧

Danube River

Crossing the blue ribbon of the Danube near the city of Linz as the plane begins its descent.

🏰

South Bohemia

A landscape dotted with historic ponds and small villages as you approach the Prague metropolitan area.

The right side offers the most dramatic mountain scenery. Choose a seat behind the wing for a wide-angle view of the Dolomites. Afternoon flights provide the best direct lighting on the eastern Alpine faces.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🌊

Tyrrhenian Coastline

Aerial views of Lake Bracciano and the coastal towns of Lazio shortly after takeoff from FCO.

🍷

Tuscan Heartland

Rolling hills of the Chianti region and the distinctive terracotta rooftops of Florence and the Arno River.

🏞️

Lake Garda

A clear view of Italy's largest lake and the dramatic Sirmione peninsula protruding into the blue water.

🏔️

Central Alps

The snow-capped peaks of the Tyrol region and the deep valley of the Inn River near Innsbruck.

🍺

Bavarian Border

The transition from the high mountains into the flatter, forested landscapes of Southern Germany and the Bohemian Forest.

Sit toward the middle or rear to avoid the wing if you want to photograph Florence. Morning flights offer the best lighting on the Tuscan hills without the glare of the afternoon sun.
