Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers an exceptional perspective of the dramatic Dolomite peaks and a high chance of spotting the Leaning Tower of Pisa shortly after takeoff.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🇮🇹

Pisa City Center

Immediately after takeoff, you can often spot the Piazza dei Miracoli and the Leaning Tower.

🏔️

The Dolomites

Unparalleled views of the jagged, pale-colored peaks of the UNESCO-listed Dolomite mountain range.

❄️

Hohe Tauern

The High Tauern National Park in Austria, featuring the Grossglockner, the country's highest peak.

🏰

Prague

On clear days, the 'City of a Hundred Spires' and the Vltava River curve are visible to the east.

🌊

Vistula River

Follow the winding path of Poland's longest river as it heads toward the Baltic Sea.

🏗️

Gdańsk Shipyards

During the final descent, the iconic industrial cranes of the historic shipyards come into view.

Early morning flights are spectacular on this side as the sun illuminates the Alpine peaks. Ensure you are alert within the first 5 minutes of flight for the Pisa landmarks and roughly 30-40 minutes in for the best of the Dolomites. Check the landing direction; if approaching from the north, this side offers great views of the Baltic coastline.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
⛰️

Apuan Alps

View the white-scarred marble quarries of Carrara in the mountain range shortly after departure.

💧

Lake Garda

The western shores of Italy's largest lake are often visible as the plane nears the Alpine foothills.

🏔️

Tyrolean Alps

Glaciated peaks and deep valleys of the Austrian Tirol region provide stunning high-altitude scenery.

🌲

Bavarian Forest

As you cross into Germany/Czechia border, look for the dense green expanse of the Bohemian and Bavarian forests.

🏙️

Wrocław

The distinct layout of this historic Polish city and its many bridges across the Oder River.

Choose a seat in the front of the wing for the best view of the Alps. This side is better during afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun while crossing Central Europe. Look out for the shimmer of the Polish lakes as you approach the Pomeranian region.
