What does the Cagliari to Bari flight path pass over?

The flight crosses the central Tyrrhenian Sea at cruise altitude (around 25,000-30,000 feet). Midpoint features include the Tyrrhenian Sea's open water (minimal visual interest), and as the aircraft approaches the Italian mainland, the Basilicata and Calabria coastlines become visible on the right side. The transition from Tyrrhenian to Adriatic waters occurs around the southern tip of the Italian peninsula. The Apennine Mountains' southern ridges may be visible as a distant haze on the right during cruise, but the sea dominates the midpoint of this route.
