Which side of the plane to sit from Venice Marco Polo Airport (Venice) to Lamezia Terme Airport (Lamezia)?

Search flights from VCE to SUF
Venice & Lagoon
An unbeatable view of the historic center, St. Mark's Square, and the Grand Canal shortly after departure from VCE.
Gran Sasso d'Italia
The highest peaks of the Apennines, often snow-capped, providing a jagged and dramatic skyline mid-flight.
Stromboli Volcano
On the approach to Lamezia, look out to sea to spot the iconic cone of this active volcano rising from the Tyrrhenian.
Costa degli Dei
The 'Coast of the Gods' with its turquoise waters and the historic town of Pizzo perched on the cliffs.
Abbey of Montecassino
Depending on the specific airway, the historic hilltop monastery may be visible in the distance over the Lazio region.
The right side is the clear winner for this route. For the best photography of Venice, use a fast shutter speed as the plane climbs quickly. Evening flights provide stunning sunset views over the Tyrrhenian Sea as you approach Lamezia Terme. Ensure you have a window seat away from the wing for the best downward angles of the Venice lagoon.

Adriatic Horizon
Expansive vistas of the upper Adriatic Sea and the distant coastline of Croatia on very clear days.
Mount Conero
The dramatic limestone cliffs near Ancona that break the flat sandy beaches of the Adriatic coast.
Gargano Peninsula
The 'spur' of Italy's boot, featuring the ancient Foresta Umbra and white sea cliffs.
Sila National Park
The lush, high-altitude plateau of Calabria characterized by dense pine forests and lakes during the descent.
Sit on this side for early morning flights to witness the sunrise over the sea. It is generally the 'quieter' side for views until you reach the final descent into the mountainous interior of Calabria.
