Search flights from LPA to BGY
Mount Teide
Shortly after takeoff, look back to see the majestic volcanic peak of Tenerife rising above the Atlantic clouds.
Central Pyrenees
A cross-section view of the rugged, often snow-capped border between Spain and France.
The High Alps
Breathtaking views of the French and Swiss Alps, including potential sightings of the Mont Blanc massif depending on the route.
Lake Maggiore & Como
As the plane descends into Bergamo, the deep blue glacial lakes of Lombardy appear nestled in the mountain valleys.
Città Alta Bergamo
Views of the historic medieval upper city of Bergamo during the final approach phase.
Choose the left side for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. Keep your camera ready about 40 minutes before landing for the transition from the Massif Central in France to the Alpine peaks. In winter, the snow coverage on the Pyrenees and Alps makes this side significantly more scenic.

Eastern Canaries

Barcelona & Montserrat
The unique grid pattern of Barcelona and the jagged peaks of the Montserrat monastery mountain.
Côte d'Azur
The shimmering blue coastline of the French Riviera, spanning from Marseille to Nice.
Port of Genoa
The industrial and historic harbor of Genoa where the Apennine Mountains meet the Ligurian Sea.
Milan Skyline
On a clear day, the skyscrapers of Milan's financial district are visible to the south during the approach.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to see the Mediterranean coast bathed in early light. Look for the contrast between the turquoise sea and the red rocks of the Esterel Massif in France. This side is also better for spotting the major cities of the Spanish and Italian coastlines.
