Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a spectacular view of the Italian peninsula's interior, including the rugged Apennine Mountains, the microstate of San Marino, and the lush forests of the Gargano Peninsula.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🏞️

Po Valley

The vast, green agricultural heartland of Northern Italy shortly after takeoff.

🏰

San Marino

The ancient republic perched atop the limestone cliffs of Mount Titano.

🏔️

Gran Sasso d'Italia

The highest peaks of the Apennine Mountains, often snow-capped in winter.

🌳

Gargano Peninsula

The 'spur of the boot' featuring the dense Foresta Umbra and white sea cliffs.

🏰

Castel del Monte

The iconic octagonal 13th-century citadel visible in the distance over the Murge plateau.

✈️

Puglia Countryside

The characteristic landscape of olive groves and red soil as you descend into Bari.

The right side is significantly more scenic for this route. Sit away from the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Apennine ridge. On clear days, you can see all the way across the Italian peninsula. If flying in the late afternoon, be prepared for some sun glare as you head southeast.

Left Side Highlights
6.5
🏖️

Riviera Romagnola

The famous stretch of golden sandy beaches including Rimini and Riccione.

⚓

Port of Ancona

A historic and busy maritime gateway with a distinctive natural elbow shape.

🌊

Adriatic Sea

Expansive views of the deep blue sea stretching towards the Balkan coastline.

🛶

Coastal Lagoons

The Lesina and Varano lakes separated from the sea by narrow strips of land.

⛪

Bari Old Town

Aerial view of the dense, historic Bari Vecchia district during the final descent.

The left side is best for those who enjoy coastal and sea views. For the best lighting, choose a morning flight to have the sun behind the aircraft. During the final approach into Bari, this side often provides a clearer view of the harbor and the city's waterfront architecture.
