Which side of the plane to sit from Frankfurt-Hahn Airport (Hahn) to Pescara International Airport (Pescara)?
Right Side of the Plane
While both sides offer spectacular alpine views, the Right Side is generally superior for seeing the highest peaks of the Swiss Alps, the full expanse of Lake Garda, and the dramatic descent alongside the Apennine Mountains.
Central Swiss Alps
Breathtaking views of major peaks like the Jungfrau and Eiger as you head south from Germany.
Lake Garda
The distinct narrow northern fjord and wide southern basin of Italy's largest lake are clearly visible.
Gran Sasso Massif
The highest peaks of the Apennines provide a rugged backdrop during the descent into the Abruzzo region.
Pescara Cityscape
A bird's-eye view of the city's grid-like streets and long sandy beaches just before touchdown.
This side is exceptional for afternoon flights, as the sun sets over the Apennine Mountains to the west. Look out for Lake Garda approximately midway through the flight. During landing, you will get a fantastic perspective of the coastal urban sprawl and the mountains.
Austrian Tyrol
Stunning views of the jagged limestone peaks and deep valleys of the eastern Alps.
The Dolomites
The unique, pale rock formations of this UNESCO World Heritage site are visible as you cross into Italy.
Venetian Lagoon
On clear days, the distant shimmer of Venice and its surrounding islands can be spotted to the east.
Adriatic Horizon
Expansive views of the deep blue Adriatic Sea as the flight tracks south along the Italian coast.
Book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Alps perfectly. Keep your camera ready about 40 minutes after take-off for the best mountain shots. During the final approach, this side offers the best view of the open sea.
