VRN → NAP
Which side of the plane to sit from Verona Villafranca Airport (Villafranca) to Naples International Airport (Naples)?
Right Side of the Plane
While both sides offer stunning views of the Italian landscape, the Right Side is superior for its sweeping panoramas of the Tyrrhenian coastline, glimpses of the Tuscan islands, and a spectacular aerial entry into the Gulf of Naples.
Tyrrhenian Sea
The turquoise waters and sandy beaches of the Maremma coastline stretch out below.
Tuscan Archipelago
On clear days, spot the islands of Elba and Giglio rising from the Mediterranean blue.
Rome & The Vatican
Pass to the west of the Eternal City, often seeing the dome of St. Peter's Basilica in the distance.
Ischia and Procida
The beautiful volcanic islands of the Gulf of Naples appear just before touchdown.
Naples Cityscape
A dense and colorful view of the historic center and the bustling harbor during the final turn.
The right side is unbeatable for coastal scenery. Choose this side for evening flights to witness the sunset over the Mediterranean. During the final approach into NAP, the right side typically offers the best view of the islands and the Phlegraean Fields.
Lake Garda
Shortly after takeoff from VRN, catch a final glimpse of Italy's largest lake to the north.
The Apennines
Fly parallel to the rugged spine of Italy, seeing the limestone peaks of the central range.
Florence & Tuscany
View the rolling hills of Chianti and the distant terracotta roofs of the Renaissance capital.
Mount Vesuvius
An incredible close-up of the massive crater as the plane descends into the Naples basin.
Sit on the left if you want a direct view of Mount Vesuvius during the final approach. This side is also better for early morning flights as you will be facing away from the direct rising sun, providing clearer views of the Apennine mountain range.
