TRS → BVA
Which side of the plane to sit from Trieste–Friuli Venezia Giulia Airport (Ronchi De Legionari) to Paris Beauvais Tillé Airport (Beauvais)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a front-row seat to the most dramatic peaks of the Dolomites and the high Alps shortly after takeoff, followed by the rolling vineyards of the Champagne region.
The Dolomites
Spectacular views of the jagged, pale limestone peaks of the UNESCO-listed Dolomites shortly after takeoff.
Julian Alps
Rugged mountain vistas along the Italian-Slovenian border during the initial climb phase.
Lake Garda North
The dramatic, fjord-like northern tip of Lake Garda where the mountains rise steeply from the water.
Swiss Alps
Glaciated high-altitude peaks and deep valleys as the flight crosses the central Alpine ridge.
Champagne Vineyards
The orderly, geometric patterns of world-famous vineyards as the flight enters French airspace.
Château de Pierrefonds
A magnificent fortified castle located in the Compiègne Forest, often visible during the descent into BVA.
The right side is superior for mountain lovers; the Dolomites appear very quickly after leaving TRS. For the best photography, choose a seat ahead of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. In winter, the snow-covered peaks of the Swiss Alps are a major highlight on this side.
Gulf of Trieste
Aerial view of the northernmost tip of the Adriatic Sea and the Grado lagoon immediately after departure.
Venetian Plain
The dense urban tapestry of northeastern Italy, including the outskirts of Venice and Padua.
Lake Garda South
The wider southern basin of Italy's largest lake, featuring the Sirmione peninsula reaching into the water.
Po Valley Transition
Watch the flat agricultural plains give way to the foothills of the Alps as the plane heads northwest.
Reims Cathedral
On a clear approach, the historic city of Reims and its massive Gothic cathedral are visible to the south.
Distant Paris
Depending on the approach path to BVA, the Eiffel Tower may be visible on the horizon to the southwest.
Sit on the left for softer lighting during morning flights. If the flight path takes a southerly route into Beauvais, you have a better chance of spotting the Paris skyline in the distance. This side also provides excellent views of the Venetian lagoon if the plane departs towards the southwest.
