About This Route

Which side of the plane should I sit on flying from Bergamo Orio Al Serio (BGY) to Menara (RAK)?

Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Bergamo to Marrakech. Left side scores higher due to the dramatic Alpine scenery during takeoff from Bergamo, which provides sustained visual interest and genuine terrain relief. While the landing approach to Marrakech offers mountain views on the right, the takeoff experience from a major Alpine-adjacent airport is more consistently scenic. The flight path itself crosses the Mediterranean with limited mid-cruise drama, making the departure experience the primary scenic asset.
