TRN → CAG
Which side of the plane to sit from Turin Airport (Torino) to Cagliari Elmas Airport (Cagliari)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a classic Mediterranean itinerary, featuring the sprawling city of Turin, the sweeping curve of the Italian Riviera near Genoa, the turquoise waters of the Maddalena Archipelago, and the iconic pink salt pans of Cagliari on final approach.
Turin & Po Valley
Aerial view of the city's grid layout and the winding Po River immediately after takeoff.
Genoa Harbor
The massive industrial and historic port of Genoa as the plane transitions from land to sea.
Tuscan Archipelago
On clear days, the islands of Capraia and Elba are visible in the distance across the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Maddalena Archipelago
Stunning emerald waters and granite islands located between the southern tip of Corsica and Sardinia.
Cagliari Salt Pans
The vibrant pink and purple hues of the Molentargius-Saline Regional Park during the final descent.
For the best experience, choose a morning flight to avoid the direct glare of the sun. Keep your camera ready during the last 5 minutes of the flight; the approach over the Poetto beach and the salt pans is one of the most colorful landings in Italy.
Monviso
The 'King of Stone' stands out prominently in the Western Alps shortly after departing Turin.
Corsican Highlands
Spectacular views of Monte Cinto and the rugged, mountainous spine of central Corsica.
Strait of Bonifacio
The dramatic white limestone cliffs of Bonifacio appearing as a sharp divide between the islands.
Campidano Plain
The fertile agricultural basin of Sardinia, stretching from Oristano down to the outskirts of Cagliari.
Stagno di Gilla
The vast lagoon area adjacent to the airport, reflecting the sky during the final touchdown.
The right side is ideal for sunset flights, as you will witness the sun dipping into the Mediterranean Sea. It is also the preferred side for mountain lovers, providing a closer look at the high peaks of both the Alps and the Corsican interior.
