Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Venice to Atlanta. The left side wins overall due to the spectacular Venice lagoon departure view, which is one of the most distinctive urban aerial perspectives in Europe. During the transatlantic crossing the views are largely ocean, but on the North American approach the left side picks up the Appalachian Mountains in the Carolinas and Georgia as the flight descends, offering a long ridge-and-valley sequence before Atlanta.

During takeoff from Venezia Tessera (VCE), sit on the Left side for the best views. Venice Marco Polo typically departs westward over the lagoon on runway 04/22 or 28. A left-side seat gives you a direct view back over the Venetian Lagoon, the historic island city of Venice, and the barrier islands of the Lido. The causeway connecting Venice to the mainland is clearly visible as a thin line crossing the lagoon. Notable sights include: Venice historic island city, Venetian Lagoon, Lido barrier island, Porto Marghera industrial port.

When landing at The William B Hartsfield Atlanta International (ATL), sit on the Right side for the best views. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta primarily uses runways oriented northeast-southwest (8L/26R, 9L/27R, 10/28). Arriving from the northeast on an easterly approach, right-side seats get views of downtown Atlanta's skyline, including Midtown and the Buckhead district to the north, as the aircraft descends over the northern suburbs. Left-side passengers face away from the city center. Notable sights include: Downtown Atlanta skyline, Stone Mountain (visible to the east), Lake Lanier reservoir to the north, Midtown Atlanta towers.

The flight from Venezia Tessera (VCE) to The William B Hartsfield Atlanta International (ATL) takes Approximately 10 to 11 hours.

After crossing the Alps and southern France, the flight tracks over the Bay of Biscay and then the North Atlantic. The southern tip of Greenland or Newfoundland may be visible depending on the exact routing. Over North America the flight crosses the Appalachian Mountains through the Blue Ridge and Ridge-and-Valley sections of the Carolinas and northern Georgia, with the long parallel ridgelines clearly visible from altitude before descending into the Atlanta basin.
