Which side of the plane to sit from Toulouse-Blagnac Airport (Toulouse) to Venice Marco Polo Airport (Venice)?
Right Side of the Plane
While both sides offer stunning views of the Alps, the Right Side is the clear winner for the iconic aerial view of Venice's historic center and the lagoon upon final approach.
Search flights from TLS to VCE
The French Riviera
Distant views of the Mediterranean coastline and the Gulf of Genoa to the south.
Milan & Po Valley
The sprawling metropolitan area of Milan and the agricultural geometric patterns of the Lombardy plains.
Venice Historic Center
The world-famous 'fish-shaped' island, including St. Mark's Square and the Grand Canal, usually visible during the final turn.
Venetian Lagoon
Intricate patterns of sandbanks, the Lido, and the MOSE flood barriers at the lagoon inlets.
Port of Marghera
The industrial heart of the region providing a stark contrast to the historic islands just before landing.
This is the 'Venice Side.' To maximize your chance of seeing the city, sit on the right. If the plane lands on Runway 04 (standard approach from the west), the aircraft often flies past the city before banking. Try to book a seat ahead of the wing to ensure your view of the canals isn't obstructed by the engine or flap movements.

The High Alps
Spectacular views of the Ecrins National Park and distant glimpses of Mont Blanc to the north.
Lake Garda
The northern tip of Italy's largest lake, framed by steep mountains as you cross into the Veneto region.
The Dolomites
Jagged limestone peaks of the Southern Limestone Alps visible during the initial stages of descent.
Verona
Aerial view of the historic city center and the Adige River winding through the urban landscape.
The left side is best for mountain enthusiasts. Early morning flights provide excellent front-lighting on the snow-capped French and Italian Alps. Watch for the sharp contrast between the high peaks and the flat Po Valley as you approach the descent phase.
