Which side of the plane to sit from Pescara International Airport (Pescara) to London Stansted Airport (London)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Adriatic coastline during takeoff and provides the most dramatic perspective of the high Alpine peaks and the central Swiss massifs.
Adriatic Coastline
A stunning panoramic view of the turquoise Pescara shoreline as the plane climbs to cruising altitude.
The High Alps
Unrivaled views of the snow-capped Swiss and Italian Alps, including famous peaks like the Matterhorn and Eiger.
Champagne Region
Fly over the structured vineyard patterns of the Reims and Γpernay regions in northern France.
Greater London
On clear days during the approach to Stansted, the distant skyline including The Shard and Canary Wharf may be visible.
East Anglian Plains
Detailed views of the patchwork fields and rural villages of Essex just before touchdown.
Morning flights are best for the right side to avoid direct sun glare and get perfect lighting on the Alps. Keep your camera ready about 45-60 minutes into the flight for the most spectacular mountain photography.
Gran Sasso d'Italia
Immediately after takeoff, witness the highest peak in the Apennines and the rugged beauty of the Abruzzo region.
Tuscan Landscapes
As you head northwest, look down at the rolling vineyards and historic hill towns of central Italy.
Mont Blanc
The highest peak in Western Europe often appears on the horizon as you cross the French-Italian border.
English Channel
A clear view of the busy shipping lanes and the French coastline before crossing towards the UK.
Kent Countryside
The lush green landscapes of the 'Garden of England' are visible during the descent into Essex.
Choose this side for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Tyrrhenian Sea and France. It also offers the best view of the Gran Sasso massif within the first 10 minutes of flight.
