Which side of the plane to sit from Palma De Mallorca Airport (Palma de Mallorca) to Il Caravaggio International Airport (Bergamo)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior panoramic view of the Balearic coastline upon departure and a spectacular look at the French and Italian Rivieras before descending into the Lombardy region.
Serra de Tramuntana
Dramatic views of Mallorca's UNESCO-listed mountain range immediately after takeoff from Palma.
Gulf of Lion
Expansive views across the deep blue Mediterranean as the flight tracks toward mainland Europe.
French Riviera
Stunning vistas of the Côte d'Azur, including the areas around Nice and Monaco, depending on the airway.
Maritime Alps
Snow-capped peaks of the Southern Alps visible as the plane crosses from France into Italy.
Milan Skyline
On clear days during the descent, the skyscrapers of Milan are often visible in the distance to the west.
Sit on the left for the best morning light, as the sun will be on the opposite side. This side is also preferred for seeing the rugged coastline of the French-Italian border. Choose a seat ahead of the wing for unobstructed photos of the Tramuntana mountains.
Menorca
Aerial view of the quieter Balearic neighbor, Menorca, shortly after departure.
Corsica & Sardinia
On the horizon, the mountainous silhouettes of these major Mediterranean islands are often visible.
Ligurian Coast
Views of the Italian coastline near La Spezia and the Cinque Terre region during the initial descent.
Po Valley
The geometric patterns of Italy's most fertile agricultural heartland as you approach Bergamo.
Città Alta
A close-up view of Bergamo's historic medieval 'Upper Town' just moments before touching down at BGY.
The right side is excellent for spotting the silhouette of Corsica and the vastness of the Po Valley. During the final approach into BGY, this side often gets a fantastic view of the ancient walls of Bergamo's Città Alta if the plane approaches from the east.
