Which side of the plane to sit from Frankfurt am Main Airport (Frankfurt) to Verona Villafranca Airport (Villafranca)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an unparalleled sequence of water and mountain vistas, specifically featuring a grand view of Lake Constance and a spectacular descent directly alongside the western shores of Lake Garda.

Main River Loop
The winding curves of the Main river as the aircraft gains altitude south of Frankfurt.
Lake Constance
A massive expanse of water where Germany, Switzerland, and Austria meet, often passed directly on the right.
Swiss-Austrian Alps
Glaciated peaks and high-altitude lakes of the Silvretta and Engadin mountain groups.
Lake Garda
The crown jewel of the flight; a full view of Italy's largest lake and the Sirmione peninsula during descent.
Verona Outskirts
The terracotta rooftops of Villafranca and the surrounding Italian countryside during the final flare.
This is the definitive choice for this route. For the best experience, choose a seat ahead of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. The descent into Verona typically follows the western side of Lake Garda; if the plane approaches from the north, you will have a front-row seat to the dramatic cliffs of Limone and Riva del Garda.

Frankfurt Skyline
Aerial view of the 'Mainhattan' skyscrapers and the banking district shortly after takeoff.
Odenwald Forest
Dense green canopies of the low mountain range in Southern Germany.
Eastern Alps
Panoramic views of the Austrian peaks and the distant silhouette of the Zugspitze.
Adige Valley
The deep, vineyard-lined valley leading down from the Brenner Pass into Italy.
Sit on this side for the best lighting during afternoon flights, as the sun will be behind the plane. Watch for the dramatic transition from the Bavarian plateau into the jagged peaks of the Austrian Alps. During the final approach, you may catch a glimpse of the Lessinia hills to the east of Verona.
