Which side of the plane to sit from Pisa International Airport (Pisa) to Tirana International Airport Mother Teresa (Tirana)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a more scenic perspective of the rolling Tuscan hills immediately after takeoff, the highest peaks of the central Apennines, and a more dramatic entrance into the Balkan Peninsula over the Albanian coastline.

Pisa Landmarks
A quick glimpse of the Square of Miracles and the Leaning Tower immediately after departure from PSA.
Tuscan Countryside
Geometric patterns of vineyards, olive groves, and cypress-lined roads of the Chianti region.
Gran Sasso d'Italia
The majestic, snow-capped peaks of the highest massif in the Apennines visible to the south.
Gargano Peninsula
The distinct 'spur' of the Italian boot jutting out into the Adriatic Sea with its white limestone cliffs.
Mount Dajti
The impressive limestone massif that overlooks Tirana, marking the end of the journey.
Choose the right side for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. Look out early after takeoff for the Tuscan landscape, and keep your camera ready during the descent as the plane banks toward Tirana for a perfect view of the Dajti Mountain.

Florence Horizon
Distant views of the iconic Duomo and Florence's cityscape if the flight path tracks slightly north.
Northern Apennines
Rugged ridges and deep valleys of the mountain range that forms the spine of Italy.
Riviera Romagnola
The long, golden sandy stretches of the Adriatic coast near Ancona and Rimini.
Adriatic Crossing
Expansive views of the deep blue Adriatic Sea dotted with merchant ships and tankers.
Krujë Fortress
The historic mountain-side castle of Albania's national hero, Skanderbeg, during the final descent.
Sit on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you for better photography of the Italian coast. This side is also superior for spotting the distant Dalmatian islands of Croatia if the sky is clear during the mid-flight crossing.
