NRN β AHO
Which side of the plane to sit from Weeze Airport (Weeze) to Alghero-Fertilia Airport (Alghero)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Mont Blanc massif, the Jura mountains, and the dramatic western coastline of Corsica before landing near the iconic cliffs of Capo Caccia.
Vosges Mountains
The rounded 'ballons' of the Vosges range in eastern France shortly after reaching cruise altitude.
Lake Geneva
The distinctive crescent shape of Lake Geneva and the city of Geneva at its western tip.
Mont Blanc
A spectacular view of the highest peak in the Alps, often passing very close to the massif.
Cote d'Azur
Distant views of the French Riviera and the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez.
West Corsican Cliffs
The dramatic red granite cliffs of Piana and the Scandola Nature Reserve.
Capo Caccia
The massive limestone headland known as the 'Sleeping Giant' during the final approach into Alghero.
The right side is the 'photographer's choice' for this route. Afternoon flights offer stunning golden hour light on the Alps and the Sardinian coast. Ensure you watch closely during the final 10 minutes of the flight for the breathtaking limestone cliffs of Capo Caccia as the plane turns toward Alghero-Fertilia.
Eifel & Rhine
Rolling hills of the Eifel volcanic region and the winding Rhine river shortly after departure.
Bernese Alps
Distal but impressive views of the Eiger, MΓΆnch, and Jungfrau peaks as you cross Switzerland.
Milan & Po Valley
The dense urban landscape of Milan and the geometric agricultural patterns of the Po Valley.
Port of Genoa
The sprawling harbor of Genoa and the vibrant coastline of the Italian Riviera.
Corsican Granite
The high jagged peaks of central Corsica and the dense 'Maquis' shrubland from above.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and enjoy the sunrise lighting up the Alps. This side provides a better perspective of the Italian coastline near Genoa and the eastern side of the Tuscan Archipelago.
