FMM β AHO
Which side of the plane to sit from Memmingen Allgau Airport (Memmingen) to Alghero-Fertilia Airport (Alghero)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular vantage point of Lake Constance shortly after takeoff, followed by the most dramatic peaks of the Central Alps and the rugged western coastline of Corsica and Sardinia.
Lake Constance
An expansive view of the Bodensee where Germany, Austria, and Switzerland meet.
Bernese Oberland
The snow-capped giants of the Swiss Alps, including views toward the Jungfrau region.
Ligurian Coast
Where the mountains meet the Mediterranean sea near Genoa and the French border.
Western Corsica
Dramatic granite cliffs, deep red calanques, and the mountainous spine of the island.
Capo Caccia
The massive limestone promontory and the 'Sleeping Giant' rock formation protecting Alghero.
The right side is the undisputed winner for the approach into Alghero (AHO). Try to book an afternoon flight to see the cliffs of Capo Caccia glowing in the golden hour light. Shortly after takeoff from Memmingen, look down immediately to see the rolling AllgΓ€u countryside before the dramatic rise of the Alps. Keep your camera ready as you cross the coastline of Corsica, as the terrain is exceptionally rugged.
Engadin Alps
Glaciated peaks and high-altitude valleys of the Swiss and Italian border regions.
Milan & Po Valley
Bird's eye view of the Lombardy capital and the industrial heart of Northern Italy.
Tuscan Archipelago
Distant views of the islands of Elba and Montecristo shimmering in the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Eastern Corsica
The flatter, lagoon-rich coastline near Bastia and the southern salt flats.
Gulf of Asinara
The deep blue waters of the bay as you approach Northern Sardinia from the north.
Sit on the left if you are flying early in the morning to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. This side is better for spotting the silhouette of the Italian mainland and the Apennine Mountains in the distance. During the final approach, you may see the Porto Torres industrial area and the vast agricultural plains of Sassari.
