Which side of the plane to sit from Pisa International Airport (Pisa) to Liverpool John Lennon Airport (Liverpool)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior perspective of the high Alpine peaks and the classic English countryside of the Midlands during the descent.
Apuan Alps
The 'Marble Mountains' of Carrara are visible almost immediately, known for the white stone used by Michelangelo.
The Matterhorn
The iconic pyramid-shaped peak is often visible among the Pennine Alps during the crossing into Switzerland/France.
Lake Geneva
The massive crescent-shaped lake and the city of Geneva are clearly visible on clear days.
Greater Paris
Depending on the airway, the sprawling urban landscape of Paris and its outskirts can be seen mid-flight.
The Midlands
Aerial views of Birmingham and the industrial heart of England as the aircraft tracks north toward Merseyside.
Peak District
The green plateaus and valleys of the UK's first national park are visible to the east during the final descent.
The right side is ideal for the most dramatic Alpine scenery. Keep your camera ready about 30 to 45 minutes after takeoff for the high peaks. On the approach to Liverpool, this side provides better views of the Manchester ship canal and the urban sprawl of the Northwest.
Ligurian Coastline
Stunning views of the Italian Riviera and the turquoise waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea immediately after takeoff.
Mont Blanc
Glance out to see the highest peak in the Alps and the surrounding glaciers as you cross the French-Italian border.
Loire Valley
Vast stretches of the French 'Garden of France' with its winding rivers and historic chateaus.
Normandy Coast
The dramatic white cliffs and historic beaches of Northern France before crossing the English Channel.
Snowdonia National Park
Distant views of the rugged mountains of North Wales as the plane aligns for the approach into Liverpool.
Sit on the left for the best morning light when flying north. If the flight departs toward the south before turning, you may catch a glimpse of the Leaning Tower of Pisa shortly after rotation. This side also offers great views of the sunset during evening flights.
