Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a superior view of the jagged Dolomites and an iconic perspective of the Port of Genoa and the historic city center during the final approach.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🏔️

The Dolomites

Breathtaking views of the jagged, pale limestone peaks of the UNESCO World Heritage site in South Tyrol.

🏞️

Adige Valley

The deep glacial valley cutting through the Alps towards the Italian plains.

🌾

Po Valley

The vast, fertile plains of Northern Italy, showcasing a patchwork of agricultural fields.

🚢

Port of Genoa

A detailed view of one of the Mediterranean's busiest shipping and cruise ports during descent.

🏙️

Genoa Old Town

The dense maze of the medieval city center and the 'Lanterna' lighthouse visible just before touchdown.

Book a seat forward of the wing for unobstructed photos of the Dolomites. Morning flights provide the best illumination for the Alpine peaks, while late afternoon flights offer a beautiful golden hour glow over the Ligurian Sea.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🏔️

Zugspitze

Germany's highest peak is often visible to the southwest shortly after departing Munich.

❄️

Central Alpine Divide

A continuous vista of snow-capped peaks and glaciers along the Austro-Italian border.

💧

Lake Garda

The northern tip of Italy's largest lake can often be spotted shimmering in the distance.

🏙️

Milan Metropolitan Area

On clear days, the skyline of Italy's fashion capital is visible across the Lombardy plains.

⛰️

Ligurian Apennines

The rugged, green mountain range that drops dramatically into the Mediterranean Sea.

The right side is ideal for sunset flights to witness the 'Alpenglow' on the western ridges. During the final descent, this side offers the first glimpse of the blue Mediterranean horizon as the plane crosses the coastal mountains.
