Gulf of Naples
Stunning views of the islands of Ischia and Procida immediately after departure from NAP.
Rome & Latium Coast
A clear view of the Italian capital and the Tiber River snaking toward the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Lake Garda
Italy's largest lake is often visible in its entirety as the flight approaches the Alpine foothills.
Central Alps
A breathtaking sequence of snow-capped peaks and glaciers crossing from Italy into Austria.
Munich & Bavaria
Glances of the Allianz Arena and the sprawling Bavarian landscape as the plane heads north.
Sit in an 'A' seat to avoid the morning sun glare when flying north. Keep your camera ready about 40 minutes after takeoff for the transition from the Italian lakes to the high Alps. During winter, the contrast between the sunny Mediterranean and the snow-covered mountains is particularly striking.

Mount Vesuvius
Depending on the takeoff direction, a spectacular view of the volcano's crater and the city of Naples.
Apennine Mountains
The rugged 'spine' of Italy featuring deep limestone gorges and high plateau regions.
Adriatic Horizon
On clear days, the shimmering blue of the Adriatic Sea and the Venice Lagoon appear to the east.
The Dolomites
Unique jagged limestone formations that turn pink or orange during the 'Enrosadira' at sunset.
Tropical Islands Dome
The world's largest free-standing hall, a former airship hangar, visible shortly before landing in Berlin.
Choose an 'F' seat for the best chance to see Vesuvius during the initial climb. This side is better for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh western sun. Watch for the 'Tropical Islands' dome roughly 10-15 minutes before landing—it is a unmistakable landmark in the flat Brandenburg landscape.
