Serra de Tramuntana
The UNESCO-listed mountain range on the northern coast of Majorca visible immediately after takeoff.
Cliffs of Bonifacio
Stunning white limestone cliffs at the southern tip of Corsica as the flight crosses the strait.
Maddalena Archipelago
A cluster of turquoise islands and granite rock formations between Corsica and Sardinia.
Rome City Center
The Vatican, Colosseum, and the Tiber River are often visible on the left during the descent into CIA.
Lake Bracciano
A large volcanic lake north of Rome, frequently seen as the aircraft begins its final turn towards the airport.
