SUF → PSA
Which side of the plane to sit from Lamezia Terme Airport (Lamezia) to Pisa International Airport (Pisa)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a continuous panorama of the Italian coastline, including iconic landmarks like Mount Vesuvius, the Roman shoreline, and the potential for a spectacular view of the Leaning Tower of Pisa during the final approach.
Calabrian Massifs
Rugged views of the Pollino National Park and the mountainous spine of southern Italy shortly after departure.
Mount Vesuvius
A dramatic view of the famous volcano and the sprawling Gulf of Naples as the plane passes the Campania region.
Rome's Coastline
The mouth of the Tiber River and the coastal stretches near Fiumicino are clearly visible mid-flight.
Maremma Hills
The transition into Tuscany brings views of rolling hills, vineyards, and the historic coastal plains.
Leaning Tower of Pisa
On the final approach into PSA, the Piazza dei Miracoli and its famous tower are often visible if the plane approaches from the south.
The right side is the 'land side' for this northbound route. For the best experience, try to sit behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of Mount Vesuvius. During the descent, keep your camera ready as the plane often banks, providing a rare aerial perspective of Pisa's historic center.
Tyrrhenian Sea
Expansive views of the deep blue Mediterranean waters throughout the majority of the flight.
Aeolian Islands
On clear days shortly after takeoff, the volcanic silhouettes of Stromboli and its neighbors may be visible to the southwest.
Tuscan Archipelago
Excellent views of islands like Giglio, Montecristo, and Elba as the plane tracks northward toward Pisa.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is also ideal for spotting the silhouette of Corsica on the horizon during high-visibility days and enjoying the sunset over the water on late-afternoon departures.
