Our Recommendation
8.4

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side provides a more diverse landscape, featuring the rugged Southern Carpathians early on and a better angle for the Venetian Lagoon and the city of Pisa upon arrival.

Right Side Highlights
8.4
⛰️

Southern Carpathians

Immediately after takeoff, witness the Transylvanian Alps with their jagged ridges and dense forests.

🏙️

Belgrade Confluence

Identify the Serbian capital where the Sava River meets the Danube in a distinct geographical fork.

🏝️

Istrian Coastline

Catch the heart-shaped peninsula of Istria and the scattered islands of the northern Croatian coast.

🛶

Venetian Lagoon

On clear days, the unique silhouette of Venice and its surrounding islands is visible to the North before crossing the Apennines.

🗼

Piazza dei Miracoli

During the final approach into PSA, keep a sharp eye out for the white marble Leaning Tower and the Cathedral complex.

Request a seat well in front of or behind the wing to avoid obstructing the Carpathian views. For the best chance to see the Leaning Tower, look out approximately 3-5 minutes before touchdown as the plane aligns with the runway.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
💧

The Danube Path

View the winding course of the Danube River as it marks the natural border between Romania and the Balkan region.

🏔️

Dinaric Alps

Fly over the dramatic limestone peaks of the Balkans, offering sharp contrasts and deep, rugged valleys.

🌊

Central Adriatic

Enjoy the vast turquoise expanse of the Adriatic Sea as the plane crosses from the Balkan Peninsula to Italy.

🌻

Tuscan Countryside

As you descend, witness the iconic cypress trees and rolling vineyards of the southern Tuscan landscape.

On late afternoon flights, the left side experiences intense direct sunlight; keep your window shade ready. This side is ideal for spotting the reflection of the moon over the Adriatic during night flights.
