Which side of the plane to sit from Treviso-Sant'Angelo Airport (Treviso) to London Stansted Airport (London)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers superior views of the Venetian Lagoon shortly after takeoff, followed by a dramatic traversal of the Brenta Dolomites and Lake Geneva, and potentially the London skyline on final approach.
Venetian Lagoon
If departing to the south, a sweeping turn provides a stunning panorama of the Venice historic center and its surrounding islands.
Brenta Dolomites
Jagged limestone peaks of the Italian Alps offer a rugged and dramatic landscape during the first 20 minutes of flight.
Lake Geneva
The crescent-shaped Swiss lake and the city of Geneva are often visible as the flight path crosses into French airspace.
Champagne Region
The patchwork of world-famous vineyards across the rolling hills of northeast France.
London Skyline
During standard arrivals into Stansted from the south, the skyscrapers of the City and Canary Wharf are often visible in the distance.
Sit on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. Keep your camera ready immediately after takeoff for Venice, and look out about 45 minutes in for the distinct shape of Lake Geneva. On landing, if the plane enters a holding pattern, you may get multiple views of the Thames Estuary.
Treviso City
A clear view of the walled city of Treviso and the lush Venetian plains immediately after departure.
Central Alpine Massifs
Views toward the highest peaks of the Swiss and Austrian Alps, including snow-capped glaciers.
Black Forest Edge
The dense, dark evergreen canopy of the southwestern German forest visible as you head toward the Benelux region.
North Sea Coastline
The busy shipping lanes of the English Channel and the intricate coastlines of Belgium and the Netherlands.
Essex Countryside
Quaint English villages and green pastures as the aircraft descends into the north of London.
The right side is excellent for evening flights to catch the sunset over Western Europe. Pay close attention during the Alpine crossing (approx. 20-30 minutes after takeoff) for the most impressive mountain photography. Check the wind direction; a landing from the north means the right side sees the rural beauty of East Anglia.
