Which side of the plane to sit from Berlin-Tegel Airport (Berlin) to Milano Linate Airport (Milan)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior panoramic view of the Central Alps and Lake Constance, concluding with an iconic descent over Lake Como and the Monza racetrack before landing in Milan.
Potsdam Palaces
The historic Sanssouci Park and the interconnected lake systems of the Havel river.
Lake Constance
The vast 'Bodensee' marking the tri-point border of Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.
Central Swiss Alps
Breathtaking perspectives of snow-capped peaks and glacial valleys during the Alpine crossing.
Lake Como
The deep blue, Y-shaped alpine lake surrounded by steep mountains and luxury villas.
Monza Circuit
The famous Formula 1 Autodromo Nazionale Monza is often visible during the final approach path.
Milan Skyscrapers
Views of the Porta Nuova district and the Unicredit Tower just before touching down at Linate.
The right side is ideal for morning flights as the sun will be behind the aircraft, providing perfect lighting for Alpine photography. Look out approximately 15 minutes before landing for the best views of Lake Como. Seasonal snow cover in the Alps is most dramatic from December to April.
Berlin Cityscape
Aerial views of the Berlin TV Tower and the dense urban center immediately following departure.
Ore Mountains
The forested ridges forming the natural border between Germany and the Czech Republic.
Bavarian Forest
Expansive views of one of Europe's largest protected woodland areas near the Bohemian border.
Karwendel Range
Dramatic limestone peaks of the Austrian Alps known for their sharp, jagged silhouettes.
Lombardy Plains
The geometric patterns of the fertile Po Valley as the terrain flattens out towards Milan.
Sit toward the rear to avoid wing obstruction when viewing the Eastern Alps. On early morning flights, the sun will be on this side, which may cause glare; use a polarizer on your camera if possible.
