Valencia Coastline
Immediate views of the Malvarrosa beach and the sprawling Port of Valencia right after takeoff.
The Pyrenees
On clear days, the distant jagged peaks of the Pyrenees are visible to the northwest as you cross the Gulf of Lion.
Western Alps
A breathtaking approach to Italy featuring the high altitude peaks of the French and Italian Alps.
Lake Como & Lake Iseo
During the descent into Bergamo, the deep blue waters of the Lombardy lake district often come into view.
Monza Circuit
Look for the famous Formula 1 track located just north of Milan during the final approach phase.
Sit on the left for afternoon flights to keep the sun behind you. The most dramatic scenery occurs in the final 30 minutes of the flight as the plane maneuvers around the foothills of the Alps. Keep your camera ready as you pass the French-Italian border for the best mountain textures.

Balearic Sea
Expansive views of the turquoise Mediterranean waters with cargo ships and ferries dotting the horizon.
French Riviera
A bird's-eye view of the glamorous coastline stretching from Marseille past Cannes and Nice.
Ligurian Apennines
The rugged mountains of the Liguria region where the slopes meet the Mediterranean Sea near Genoa.
Milan Skyline
Views of the Porta Nuova skyscrapers and the iconic Duomo di Milano in the distance during the approach to BGY.
The right side is ideal for morning flights when the sun illuminates the coastline. Watch for the distinctive shape of the Italian coast as the plane turns inland near Genoa. Seasonal tip: in winter, the contrast between the blue sea and the snow-dusted Apennines is particularly striking.
