Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior mix of coastal panoramas, volcanic islands, and an unparalleled view of the Western Alps' highest peaks during the final descent.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🌊

Strait of Messina

Aerial view of the narrow turquoise passage separating Sicily from the Italian mainland during departure.

🌋

Aeolian Islands

Spot the volcanic cones of Stromboli and Vulcano rising dramatically from the Tyrrhenian Sea.

🏝️

Elba Island

Clear views of the largest island in the Tuscan Archipelago and the surrounding turquoise waters.

🏖️

Ligurian Riviera

The rugged coastline of the Italian Riviera and the Gulf of Genoa as the plane turns inland.

🏔️

Monviso Peak

The iconic, pyramid-shaped 'King of Stone' dominates the horizon during the approach to Turin.

For the best experience, book an early morning flight to see the sunrise reflecting off the Tyrrhenian Sea. As you approach Turin, the left side provides the best angle for the Cottian Alps. Ensure you are seated away from the wing to fully capture the transition from Mediterranean coast to Alpine peaks.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
⛰️

Aspromonte Massif

Rugged, forested mountain views of the southern tip of the 'boot' immediately after takeoff.

🌋

Mount Vesuvius

A distant but distinct view of the famous volcano and the sprawling city of Naples.

🏛️

Rome and the Apennines

The central mountain spine of Italy and the outskirts of the Eternal City visible in the distance.

🍷

Tuscan Hinterland

The rolling hills, vineyards, and medieval villages of central Tuscany.

🏙️

Turin City Center

The grid layout of Torino and the Mole Antonelliana spire often visible during the final landing circuit.

The right side is best for late afternoon flights as the sun illuminates the Apennine mountains and the Po Valley. Keep your camera ready about 30 minutes into the flight for a view of the Campania coastline and Vesuvius. On clear days, you can see the distant peaks of the Central Alps on the horizon.
