NRN β PSA
Which side of the plane to sit from Weeze Airport (Weeze) to Pisa International Airport (Pisa)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the most dramatic peaks of the Bernese Oberland and a stunning reveal of the Ligurian coastline during the descent into Tuscany.
Black Forest
Dense evergreen forests of southwestern Germany appearing shortly after reaching cruising altitude.
Lake Lucerne
The complex, fjord-like shape of Switzerland's most scenic central lake.
Bernese Oberland
Unrivaled views of the iconic Eiger, MΓΆnch, and Jungfrau peaks piercing the clouds.
Lake Maggiore
The transition from the high Alps to the lush, palm-lined shores of Ticino.
Ligurian Coast
The sparkling blue waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea and the jagged coastline near La Spezia.
The right side is the 'mountain side' for this route. Prepare your camera approximately 40 minutes after takeoff for the Alpine crossing. During winter months, the snow-covered peaks of the Jungfrau region are particularly spectacular. On the descent, you will often fly parallel to the coast, providing a panoramic view of the Mediterranean before turning inland for PSA.
Rhine Valley
Distant views of the winding Rhine River and the historic landscape of western Germany.
Glarus Alps
Sharp, glaciated peaks of the eastern Swiss Alps as you cross into high-altitude terrain.
Lake Como
The distinctive Y-shaped glacial lake nestled at the foot of the Italian Alps.
Milan Metropolis
The sprawling urban landscape of Lombardy, often visible under clear Mediterranean skies.
Apennine Mountains
The rugged 'backbone' of Italy that separates the Po Valley from the Tuscan plains.
Choose the left side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side provides excellent views of Lake Como and the Italian Lakes region. Keep a sharp eye out during the final approach over Pisa; if the wind dictates a northern landing, you might spot the Leaning Tower on the left as the plane banks toward the runway.
