Pisa Cityscape
Views of the Arno River and the historic center immediately after takeoff from PSA.
Isola del Giglio
A clear view of this famous island off the southern Tuscan coast during the mid-flight segment.
Gennargentu Mountains
The rugged, wild heart of Sardinia's highest mountain range visible during the southern transit.
Poetto Beach
