Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Bari to Cagliari. While takeoff offers good Adriatic views on the right, the landing approach on the left provides more dramatic and varied scenery—the Campidano Plain, Cagliari's hillside topography, and the Golfo degli Angeli create a more visually interesting descent than the relatively flat Puglian departure.

During takeoff from Palese Macchie (BRI), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right-side seats capture the Adriatic coastline and the city of Bari receding below during the initial climb-out. The aircraft departs eastward over the coast before turning south, so right windows show the immediate shoreline and urban sprawl of Bari's waterfront. Notable sights include: Bari city center and port, Adriatic Sea coastline, Puglia coastal plains extending inland.

When landing at Elmas (CAG), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left-side seats provide the best views during descent into Cagliari. The aircraft approaches from the northeast, and left windows frame the Campidano Plain, the city of Cagliari spreading across its hillsides, and the Golfo degli Angeli (Gulf of Angels) with its distinctive coastal geography. Notable sights include: Cagliari city on hillsides, Golfo degli Angeli, Campidano Plain, Stagno di Molentargius (lagoon system east of city).

The flight from Palese Macchie (BRI) to Elmas (CAG) takes Approximately 1 hour 10 minutes.

The flight crosses the Tyrrhenian Sea for roughly 45 minutes. At midpoint, the aircraft is over open water with no significant landmarks visible. The Tuscan Archipelago (Elba, Giglio) remains far to the north and is not visible on this southern route. Sardinia's northern coast (Costa Smeralda region) begins to appear on the horizon during the final 20 minutes of descent, though the aircraft approaches Cagliari from the northeast, so the western and central portions of Sardinia dominate the view rather than the famous northern beaches.
