Which side of the plane to sit from Vincenzo Florio Airport Trapani-Birgi (Trapani) to Memmingen Allgau Airport (Memmingen)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior perspective of the Sicilian coastline upon departure and a stunning panorama of the Central Alps and the Allgäu region during the descent into Germany.
Mount Erice
Immediate views of the historic town perched on the mountain overlooking Trapani.
Tuscan Archipelago
Potential views of Elba and Giglio islands as the flight tracks north along the Italian coast.
Rhaetian Alps
Dramatic crossing of the high-altitude peaks between Italy, Switzerland, and Austria.
Allgäu Region
Quaint Bavarian villages and rolling green hills during the final approach to Memmingen.
Lindau & Lake Constance
The eastern shore of the Bodensee, including the island town of Lindau, is often visible.
Sit on the right for morning flights to avoid the direct western sun. This side provides the best view of the transition from the Mediterranean climate to the rugged Alpine terrain. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing for the Allgäu landscapes.
Egadi Islands
Aerial views of Favignana and Levanzo shortly after takeoff from Trapani-Birgi.
Tyrrhenian Sea
Expansive views of the deep blue Mediterranean, often passing west of Corsica.
Bernese Alps
Glaciated peaks of the Swiss Alps visible in the distance during the northern cruise phase.
Lake Constance (West)
The western reaches of the Bodensee near the border of Germany and Switzerland.
Choose the left side for evening flights to witness the sunset over the Mediterranean. During winter, look for the stark contrast between the snow-capped Swiss peaks and the dark valleys below.
