Gulf of Ajaccio
A stunning view of the rugged western coastline of Corsica and the turquoise waters of the Gulf immediately after takeoff.
French Riviera
Distant but clear views of the Côte d'Azur coastline, including the areas near Nice and Cannes as the plane crosses the Ligurian Sea.
Mont Blanc Massif
On a clear day, the highest peak in the Alps is visible to the west, showcasing its massive glaciers and jagged granite spires.
Lake Geneva
The crescent-shaped expanse of Lac Léman often comes into view as the flight enters Swiss airspace, framed by the Jura mountains.
Vosges Mountains
A scenic pass over the forested ridges of eastern France shortly before the descent into the rolling landscape of Luxembourg.
For the best photography, opt for a morning flight to avoid the afternoon sun glare over the Mediterranean. Keep your camera ready about 25-30 minutes after takeoff for the most dramatic Alpine peaks. During the winter months, the snow-covered Jura mountains are particularly striking on the approach to Luxembourg.

Views of the highest peaks of the Corsican interior, showcasing the island's wild and mountainous heart.
Ligurian Coast

Bernese Oberland
Distant views of the famous Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks in the central Swiss Alps.
Black Forest
The dense, dark evergreen canopy of the Schwarzwald in Germany is visible as the flight path skirts the French-German border.
Moselle Valley
The winding Moselle River with its steep, vine-covered slopes marks the final stage of the journey into Luxembourg.
