About This Route

Which side of the plane should I sit on flying from Capodichino (NAP) to Kastrup (CPH)?

Right-side seats capture the most dramatic scenery: Mount Vesuvius and the Bay of Naples during departure, then the Alps and major European river valleys during cruise, and finally the Øresund region during approach. Left seats offer good landing views but miss the volcanic landscape at takeoff.

What can I see during takeoff from Capodichino in Naples?

The volcano dominates the landscape southeast of the airport, and banking right during departure provides the clearest sightline. Notable sights include: Mount Vesuvius (1,281 m, clearly visible cone), Bay of Naples with Capri island in the distance, Sorrento Peninsula coastline, Phlegraean Fields volcanic plateau.

The flight path northwestward crosses the Tyrrhenian Sea, then over central Italy passing east of the Apennine Mountains. Cruising altitude provides views of the Po River valley in northern Italy, the Alps forming a dramatic north-south ridge (visible on clear days as a distant white line on the horizon), and the flat plains of the Padana region. Crossing into Austria and Czech Republic, the terrain transitions to rolling hills and forests. Over Germany, the Rhine River and its valley become visible. The final leg approaches Denmark over the North German Plain, which is characteristically flat. The Øresund Strait marks the final geographic feature before landing at Copenhagen.
