Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior scenic experience, featuring the dramatic mountain ridges of Corsica and Sardinia mid-flight, followed by an iconic final approach over the turquoise Egadi Islands.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Ligurian Sea

Vast expanses of deep azure water as the aircraft departs the Italian mainland heading south.

⛰️

Cap Corse

The northern 'finger' of Corsica, showcasing steep ridges and isolated coastal villages.

🏝️

Maddalena Archipelago

Distant views of the granite islands and turquoise lagoons located between Corsica and Sardinia.

🦋

Egadi Islands

A breathtaking view of Favignana, Levanzo, and Marettimo islands during the final landing sequence.

The right side is essential for the best views of the Egadi Islands upon arrival in Trapani. For afternoon flights, the sun will be behind the plane, providing perfect lighting for photography of the Corsican and Sardinian coastlines. Ensure you are seated forward of the wing for an unobstructed view of the island geography.

Left Side Highlights

🚢

Genoa Port & City

A panoramic view of Italy's largest seaport and the historic lighthouse immediately after takeoff.

🏝️

Elba Island

The largest island of the Tuscan Archipelago, recognizable by its rugged coastline and green peaks.

⛰️

Mount Erice

A massive limestone mountain topped with a medieval citadel, looming over the Trapani coastline during descent.

🏖️

San Vito Lo Capo

The white sands and crystal-clear waters of the Zingaro Nature Reserve visible in the distance on approach.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun over the Mediterranean. During the landing phase, keep your camera ready for the dramatic silhouette of Mount Erice as the plane aligns with the runway.
