Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Olbia to Naples. The takeoff view of Sardinia's dramatic granite coastline and archipelago is more visually distinctive than the landing approach. While Naples and Vesuvius are iconic, the Maddalena islands and Gallura peaks offer sharper, more varied scenery during climb-out.

During takeoff from Olbia Costa Smeralda (OLB), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right side seats capture the Tyrrhenian Sea immediately after departure and the granite peaks of northeastern Sardinia. Olbia typically departs eastbound (runways 16/34), so right-side passengers get the best view of the coastline and archipelago during climb-out. Notable sights include: Tyrrhenian Sea, Maddalena Archipelago (small islands northeast of Olbia), granite peaks of Gallura region, Porto Cervo coastline.

When landing at Capodichino (NAP), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left side provides views of the Campania coastline, the Bay of Naples, and Mount Vesuvius during descent. Capodichino typically uses runways 24/06; inbound from the northwest, left-side passengers see the bay's geography unfold clearly. Notable sights include: Bay of Naples, Mount Vesuvius, Sorrento Peninsula, Capri island.

The flight from Olbia Costa Smeralda (OLB) to Capodichino (NAP) takes Approximately 1 hour 15 minutes.

The flight crosses the Tyrrhenian Sea at cruise altitude (around 25,000-30,000 feet). The Tuscan Archipelago (Elba, Pianosa) passes to the left (west) during the midpoint. The Apennine Mountains form a distant spine along the Italian mainland to the right (east). The transition from Sardinian granite geology to the volcanic landscape of Campania occurs gradually as the aircraft descends toward Naples.
