TRNTIA

Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior panoramic view of the Western Alps immediately after takeoff and a stunning perspective of the rugged Balkan coastline during the descent into Tirana.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

Western Alps

Spectacular views of the snow-capped peaks of the Piedmont region shortly after takeoff from Turin.

🏙️

Milan and Po Valley

Aerial perspective of the sprawling Lombardy region and the industrial heart of Northern Italy.

⛵

Northern Adriatic Coast

Views of the Venetian Lagoon and the coastal transition from Italy towards the Balkan peninsula.

🇭🇷

Dalmatian Coastline

The jagged, island-rich coast of Croatia and Montenegro visible as the flight traverses the Adriatic.

⛰️

Albanian Alps

Dramatic limestone massifs and deep valleys as the aircraft approaches Mother Teresa International.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. The initial climb out of TRN is the most scenic part for mountain lovers, while the final 20 minutes provide the best views of the Balkan topography.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🏢

Turin City Center

Clear views of the Mole Antonelliana and the geometric grid of Turin's historic center during initial ascent.

⛰️

Apennine Mountains

The 'spine of Italy' stretching southward, visible across the vast plains of the Po Valley.

🏖️

Riviera Romagnola

The long, sandy beaches of Rimini and the Italian eastern coastline stretching towards the horizon.

🌊

Central Adriatic

Deep blue waters of the Adriatic Sea often dotted with ferries and cargo ships between Italy and Albania.

⚓

Port of Durrës

The major Albanian port city and its surrounding beaches just before the final turn into Tirana.

The right side is ideal for afternoon or sunset flights, offering warm light over the Italian landscape. It provides a better view of the city of Turin itself if the wind direction necessitates a southern departure.
