Which side of the plane to sit from Trieste–Friuli Venezia Giulia Airport (Ronchi De Legionari) to Alghero-Fertilia Airport (Alghero)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides an exceptional aerial perspective of the Venetian Lagoon shortly after departure and the dramatic limestone cliffs of Capo Caccia during the final approach into Alghero.
Venice and the Lagoon
An iconic view of the historic city, the Grand Canal, and the surrounding mosaic of islands.
Po Valley
The vast, geometric agricultural patterns of the fertile northern Italian plains.
Tuscan Archipelago
Stunning views of Elba and the legendary, rugged silhouette of Montecristo island.
Southern Corsica
Visibility of the white limestone cliffs of Bonifacio and the Lavezzi Islands across the strait.
Capo Caccia
The massive promontory and vertical cliffs that house the famous Neptune's Grotto just before landing.
The right side is essential for the scenic arrival into Alghero; the plane usually banks near Capo Caccia, offering a dramatic view of the cliffs. On sunset flights, expect spectacular golden light over the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Gulf of Trieste
Clear views of the Miramare Castle and the rugged karst coastline immediately after takeoff.
Po River Delta
The complex network of wetlands and lagoons where Italy's longest river meets the Adriatic.
Apennine Mountains
The rugged spine of Italy featuring snow-capped peaks in winter and lush green ridges in summer.
Giglio Island
A glimpse of this famous island in the Tyrrhenian Sea during the crossing toward Sardinia.
Choose the left side for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise over the Adriatic. It is also the better side for seeing the Istrian Peninsula on the horizon during the initial climb out of Ronchi dei Legionari.
