Which side of the plane to sit from Malpensa International Airport (Milano) to Naples International Airport (Naples)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an unparalleled panorama of the Tyrrhenian coastline, the islands of the Gulf of Naples, and the dramatic cliffs of the Amalfi Coast during the final approach.
Tyrrhenian Sea
The deep blue expanse of the Mediterranean as the flight tracks south along the coast.
Tuscan Archipelago
Scenic views of Elba and Montecristo visible in the distant western horizon.
Ischia and Procida
The volcanic islands guarding the entrance to the Gulf of Naples during descent.
Amalfi Coastline
Dramatic cliffs and colorful coastal towns visible during the final approach turn.
Capri Island
The distinctive limestone silhouette of Capri rising from the turquoise sea.
Ideal for afternoon flights to catch the golden hour over the Mediterranean. During the final descent, keep your camera ready for the islands of Ischia and Capri as the plane maneuvers over the bay for landing on runway 06.
Milan and Po Valley
Urban sprawl and agricultural grids immediately after departure from Malpensa.
Apennine Range
Rugged peaks and deep valleys of the central Italian mountain chain.
Mount Vesuvius
A close-up view of the legendary volcano during the northern descent into Naples.
Umbrian Hills
The rolling landscape of central Italy with distant historic hilltop towns.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. Look for the snowy peaks of the Apennines in winter and the perfect cone of Vesuvius on the final descent leg if landing from the north.
