Dolomite Mountains
Shortly after takeoff, witness the jagged limestone peaks and deep valleys of the Italian Alps and Dolomites.
Carpathian Mountains
The flight crosses Romania, providing views of the winding, forested ridges of the Transylvanian Alps.
Danube Delta
Watch the Danube River meet the Black Sea in a massive network of wetlands and channels.
Greater Caucasus Range
The absolute highlight, featuring snow-capped giants and Mount Elbrus, Europe's highest peak.
Ustyurt Plateau
As you enter Central Asia, look down at the dramatic white limestone cliffs and canyons of this desert plateau.
Sit on the left for the best views of the high peaks. For night flights, you will miss the mountains, but look for the glowing gas flares near the Caspian Sea. On morning flights from MXP, the sun will be behind you, providing perfect lighting for photography of the Alps and Caucasus.

Po Valley & Venice
View the industrial heart of Italy and the sparkling lagoons of the Venetian coast to the south.
Dalmatian Coast
Spot the numerous islands and turquoise waters of the Croatian coastline in the distance.
Pontic Mountains
As the flight skirts the southern Black Sea, see the rugged green mountains of Northern Turkey.
Baku & Absheron
The peninsula of Baku and the offshore oil rigs of the Caspian Sea are often visible as you cross into Asia.
Kyzylkum Desert
Final approach into Urgench offers views of the Amu Darya river winding through the vast golden dunes.
The right side is better for seeing the coastal outlines of the Black Sea and the urban sprawl of the Po Valley. However, be aware that on an eastbound flight during the day, this side will face the sun for much of the journey, which can cause significant glare on the window.
