Berlin Cityscape
A final look at the German capital, including the TV Tower and central districts, depending on the departure vector.
Eastern Alps
Panoramic views of the Austrian Alps, including the jagged peaks and glaciers of the High Tauern range.
Mount Vesuvius
The most famous highlight of the trip, offering a direct view into the crater as the plane maneuvers for landing.
Naples Urban Center
A close-up view of the vibrant and densely populated city of Naples as the plane lines up with the runway.
Book a window seat on the left for the best chance of seeing Vesuvius. On standard arrivals (Runway 06), the plane banks over the sea, giving left-side passengers a stunning view of the volcano and the city. Morning flights are preferred to have the sun behind you for better photography of the Italian coast.
