Which side of the plane to sit from Naples International Airport (Naples) to Berlin-Tegel Airport (Berlin)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an unparalleled view of Mount Vesuvius during departure, followed by the dramatic jagged peaks of the Eastern Alps and the historic landscape of Saxony.
Mount Vesuvius
An incredible overhead view of the crater shortly after takeoff, provided the departure route turns north-east.
Gulf of Naples
The dense urban beauty of Naples set against the backdrop of the Mediterranean Sea.
Hohe Tauern
The highest peaks in Austria, including the Grossglockner, dominate the view during the trans-Alpine crossing.
Dresden Skyline
The historic 'Florence on the Elbe' is often visible with its distinctive river bends and Baroque architecture.
Spreewald
The lush, forested biosphere reserve south of Berlin, characterized by its network of small canals.
Keep your camera ready immediately after wheels-up; the climb out of Naples is one of the most scenic in Europe. In winter, the right side catches the early morning sun, making the snow-capped Austrian Alps glow with a warm pink hue.
Rome & Vatican City
On clear days, the western horizon reveals the sprawling layout of the Eternal City and the distant Tyrrhenian coast.
The Dolomites
A spectacular view of the jagged limestone peaks and deep valleys of the South Tyrol region.
Lake Garda
Italy's largest lake is often visible as a deep blue sliver nestled at the foot of the Alps.
Munich Metropolis
A clear view of the Bavarian capital, including the iconic red roofs and the Allianz Arena.
Leipzig
The industrial and cultural hub of Saxony with its distinct urban grid and nearby open-cast mining lakes.
For the best visibility of the Italian lakes and the Roman countryside, opt for a morning flight to avoid the afternoon sun's glare on the western windows. Seats forward of the wing are preferable for unobstructed photography of the Alpine ridgeline.
