NAP โ BSL
Which side of the plane to sit from Naples International Airport (Naples) to EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg Airport (Mulhouse)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular view of Mount Vesuvius upon departure, followed by the heart of the Italian peninsula and a more direct view of the high Swiss Alps and Italian Lakes.
Mount Vesuvius
Incredible close-up views of the crater and the ruins of Pompeii if departing towards the south or turning east.
Eternal City
Distant but clear views of Rome's urban sprawl and the Tiber river winding through the Lazio region.
Florence and Tuscany
The iconic terracotta roofs of Florence and the rolling Chianti hills visible as you head north.
Lake Como
The distinct Y-shaped lake surrounded by steep mountains as you approach the Alpine ridge.
Bernese Oberland
Direct views of the Eiger, Mรถnch, and Jungfrau peaks, some of the most famous summits in the Alps.
Lucerne and Pilatus
The jagged peaks of Mount Pilatus and the winding arms of Lake Lucerne just before landing.
The right side is superior for landmarks. Request a window seat away from the wing to see Vesuvius immediately after takeoff. In winter, the afternoon sun illuminates the Alps beautifully from this side, casting dramatic shadows across the glaciers.
Phlegraean Fields
View of the large volcanic caldera and crater lakes west of Naples shortly after takeoff.
Tuscan Archipelago
Bird's-eye view of Elba Island and the sparkling waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Versilia Coast
The long sandy stretches of the Tuscan coast near Viareggio and the marble-topped Apuan Alps.
Western Alps
Panoramic views of the snow-capped Swiss and French border peaks as you enter Swiss airspace.
Lake Neuchรขtel
The long, blue expanse of Switzerland's largest lake entirely within its borders during the descent.
Sit on the left for coastal views of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Early morning flights avoid the harsh glare of the sun over the water, providing better conditions for photographing the Tuscan islands.
