Which side of the plane to sit from Henri Coandă International Airport (Bucharest) to Cuneo International Airport (Cuneo)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a front-row seat to the most dramatic mountain scenery in Europe, including the Southern Carpathians, the Julian Alps, and the spectacular Dolomites.
Transylvanian Alps
Dramatic views of the Făgăraș and Retezat mountains shortly after departing Bucharest.
Lake Balaton
Views of Central Europe's largest lake if the flight path takes a slightly more northerly route over Hungary.
The Dolomites
Spectacular jagged limestone peaks of the Italian Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Lake Garda
A stunning view of Italy's largest lake, characterized by its narrow northern fjord-like shape.
Monte Rosa Massif
Massive snow-capped peaks of the Pennine Alps visible during the descent into the Piedmont region.
Turin Cityscape
The elegant layout of Turin and the iconic Mole Antonelliana just before the final approach into Cuneo.
This side is superior for mountain enthusiasts. For the best experience, fly during the afternoon when the sun illuminates the southern faces of the Alps. Keep your camera ready as you pass Lake Garda, as the contrast between the blue water and the mountains is exceptional. Seasonal winter flights offer the most dramatic views of the snow-covered peaks.
Bucharest Skyline
Aerial view of the Palace of the Parliament and the urban sprawl of the Romanian capital shortly after takeoff.
Balkan Mountains
Rolling hills and rugged peaks of the Balkan range stretching across Serbia and Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Adriatic Horizon
Distant glimpses of the shimmering Adriatic Sea and the intricate coastline of Croatia's Dalmatian islands.
Venetian Lagoon
The unique geographic footprint of Venice and its surrounding islands as the flight enters Italian airspace.
Po Valley
The geometric patterns of the fertile Po River basin and its many historic towns like Ferrara and Piacenza.
Choose the left side for better lighting during morning flights, as the sun will be behind the aircraft. It provides excellent views of the Venetian lagoon and the winding Po River. Look out for the Apennine Mountains appearing as a silhouette to the south during the final third of the journey.
