Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

While both sides offer stunning views of the Alps, the Right Side typically provides a superior vantage point for Mont Blanc and the dramatic coastline of the Tyrrhenian Sea during the descent into Naples, including views of the Neapolitan islands.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
πŸ—Ό

Parisian Basin

On clear days, the urban sprawl of Paris and the Eiffel Tower may be visible in the distance as you traverse central France.

πŸ”οΈ

Mont Blanc

The highest peak in Western Europe often appears prominently as the flight crosses the French-Italian border.

🌊

Tyrrhenian Coast

Stunning views of the Italian coastline, including the Tuscan Archipelago and the sparkling blue waters of the Mediterranean.

🏝️

Islands of the Bay

During the descent, look for the beautiful islands of Ischia and Procida sitting in the azure waters of the Bay of Naples.

🏘️

Naples Cityscape

A sweeping view of the densely packed historic center and the bustling port just before touchdown.

The right side is ideal for capturing the 'money shot' of the Italian coast. Aim for an afternoon flight to see the Mediterranean sun reflecting off the water. If the aircraft loops over the sea for landing, you will get a panoramic view of the Amalfi Coast in the distance.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🌳

The Peak District

Shortly after takeoff from MAN, enjoy views of the rolling green hills and dales of northern England's premier national park.

πŸ”οΈ

Swiss & Bernese Alps

A spectacular crossing of the central Alps, often featuring the jagged peaks of the Eiger, MΓΆnch, and Jungfrau.

🍷

Tuscan Apennines

The rugged spine of Italy visible as you transition from the northern plains into the heart of the peninsula.

πŸŒ‹

Mount Vesuvius

On the final approach into Naples, the towering silhouette of the world's most famous volcano dominates the landscape to the east.

Sit on the left for the best view of Mount Vesuvius during the final minutes of flight. For the best photography of the Alps, choose a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the glaciers and peaks without glare.
