Which side of the plane to sit from London Luton Airport (London) to Alghero-Fertilia Airport (Alghero)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers the most diverse range of scenery, including potential glimpses of Paris, distant views of the snow-capped French Alps, and a magnificent fly-by of the western coast of Corsica.
London & Home Counties
Aerial views of the Greater London periphery and the rolling hills of the North Downs shortly after takeoff.
Parisian Horizon
On clear days, the vast urban sprawl of Paris and its distinctive layout can be seen to the east as you transit northern France.
The French Alps
Spectacular distant views of the western Alps, including Mont Blanc, visible across the French interior.
Ligurian Sea
The transition from the French coast into the deep blue of the Mediterranean Sea.
Island of Corsica
A dramatic view of the jagged granite peaks and wild western coastline of Corsica as you head toward Sardinia.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct glare while enjoying the sunrise hitting the Alps. This side is also prime for spotting the high-altitude peaks of Corsica, which often remain snow-capped into late spring.
English Channel
Excellent views of the busy shipping lanes and the white cliffs of the English or French coastlines.
French Countryside
The patchwork of agricultural fields and famous vineyards through central France and the Rhone Valley.
Massif Central
Views of the ancient volcanic landscape and rugged plateaus of south-central France.
Gulf of Lion
The sweeping coastline of the Languedoc-Roussillon region and the marshes of the Camargue.
Capo Caccia
During the final approach to Alghero, enjoy breathtaking views of the massive limestone cliffs and Neptune's Grotto.
The right side is unbeatable for sunset views on evening flights. As you approach Alghero-Fertilia, this side usually provides the best angle of the iconic 'Sleeping Giant' rock formation at Capo Caccia.
