Search flights from HHN to CAG
Pennine Alps
Breathtaking views of the 4,000-meter peaks, including the unmistakable pyramid of the Matterhorn.
Aletsch Glacier
The largest glacier in the Alps, appearing as a massive river of ice through the mountains.
Genoa Port
The bustling maritime hub and the colorful buildings of the Italian Riviera coastline.
Western Corsica
The dramatic red granite cliffs of the Piana Calanques and the Scandola Nature Reserve.
Strait of Bonifacio
The narrow, choppy channel separating Corsica from Sardinia.
Sardinian Hinterland
The wild, mountainous interior of Sardinia leading into the Campidano plain.
This is the 'scenic side' for mountain lovers. Try to book a flight in the afternoon to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Alpine glaciers and Corsican cliffs perfectly. Keep your camera ready about 25-30 minutes after departure for the Alps, and again about 20 minutes before landing for the Corsican coastline.

The Black Forest
Dense evergreen forests of southwestern Germany visible shortly after takeoff.
Milan & Lombardy
Views of the sprawling metropolitan area of Milan and the flat, fertile Po Valley.
Gulf of Genoa
The deep blue waters of the Ligurian Sea as the flight leaves mainland Italy.
Isle of Elba
In the distance to the southeast, the historic island where Napoleon was exiled.
Sardinian East Coast
Glimpses of the turquoise waters and white sands of the famous Costa Smeralda.
Sit on the left for softer morning light if flying early. Watch for the transition from the snow-capped Swiss Alps to the industrial heart of Northern Italy. As you approach Sardinia, the contrast between the deep sea and the shallow coastal lagoons is more pronounced on this side.
