Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a more dramatic perspective of the Bavarian Alps, including the Zugspitze region, and provides stunning views of the Italian west coast and the Tyrrhenian Sea during the descent.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌲

Erzgebirge Range

Dense forests and historic mining towns along the border of Saxony and Bohemia.

🏔️

Zugspitze & Wetterstein

Unrivaled views of Germany's highest peak and the dramatic limestone walls of the Bavarian Alps.

💧

Lake Garda

The northern tip of Italy's largest lake often appears as a deep blue fjord between mountain ridges.

🏛️

Tuscan Archipelago

Views of the Tyrrhenian Sea with the distant silhouettes of Elba and potentially Corsica.

🚢

Mediterranean Crossing

Expansive views of the open sea and maritime traffic before making landfall in North Africa.

The right side is superior for afternoon and evening flights, offering spectacular sunset views over the Mediterranean. During winter months, the snow-covered peaks of the Wetterstein range are a major highlight. For the best photos, try to sit forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
⛰️

Elbe Sandstone Mountains

Unique rock formations and deep valleys along the German-Czech border shortly after takeoff.

🏔️

High Tauern National Park

Bird's-eye view of Austria's highest peaks and glaciers in the central Alpine ridge.

🌊

Adriatic Horizon

Clear days offer glimpses of the Venetian Lagoon and the sparkling northern Adriatic Sea.

🏺

Central Apennines

The rugged limestone spine of Italy as the flight path crosses the peninsula.

🏖️

Gulf of Hammamet

Beautiful coastal views of the Tunisian shoreline and the turquoise waters near Sousse.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the harshest direct sunlight. It is particularly good for spotting the sunrise over the Bohemian Forest and the eastern reaches of the Alps. Keep an eye out for the distinctive shape of the Venetian coastline when passing over Northern Italy.
