Livorno and Ligurian Coast

Milan City Center
On the standard approach to Runway 36, the Duomo, San Siro, and the CityLife skyscrapers are visible to the west.
The High Alps
A stunning backdrop of the snow-capped Monte Rosa massif and the Pennine Alps during the descent into the Po Valley.
Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side is essential for seeing the Milan skyline during the landing phase. In winter, the contrast between the Mediterranean blue and the white Alpine peaks is most dramatic.
