LUZ โ MXP
Which side of the plane to sit from Lublin Airport (Lublin) to Malpensa International Airport (Milano)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior panorama of the high Alpine chain and an exceptional perspective of the Italian Lake District, particularly Lago Maggiore, during the final approach.
Bohemian Highlands
Rolling green hills and dense forests of the Czech Republic's southern regions.
Central Alpine Range
A long, spectacular traversal of the highest peaks in Austria and Switzerland.
Lake Garda
The deep blue expanse of Italy's largest lake visible from high cruise altitude.
Monte Rosa Massif
The massive, snow-capped peaks of the Pennine Alps dominate the horizon during descent.
Lago Maggiore
Stunning low-altitude views of the Borromean Islands just minutes before touchdown.
The right side is essential for Alpine enthusiasts. During the descent into MXP, the plane often maneuvers over the lakes; keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing for the best shots of the Italian Pre-Alps and the lakes. Afternoon flights provide beautiful 'golden hour' lighting on the mountain faces.
Tatra Mountains
Dramatic views of the jagged peaks along the Polish and Slovakian border shortly after takeoff.
Krakรณw Region
The historic Vistula river valley and the outskirts of Poland's ancient capital.
Eastern Alps
The glaciated peaks of the Austrian Alps stretching towards the south.
Milan Skyline
On a clear day during descent, the skyscrapers of Porta Nuova are visible to the southeast.
Choose the left side for morning departures to avoid direct sun glare. It provides the best angle for the Tatra Mountains early in the flight. In winter, look for the snow-covered Po Valley which creates a stark contrast with the urban centers.
