Algiers Bay
A stunning panoramic view of the 'White City' and its Mediterranean harbor immediately after takeoff.
Mediterranean Crossing
Deep blue waters of the Balearic Sea transition into the turquoise shallows of the French coast.
Eastern Pyrenees
Dramatic views of the high peaks marking the border between Spain and France as the flight enters French airspace.
Cité de Carcassonne
The world-famous medieval walled city is frequently visible on the left side during the descent sequence.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. As you approach France, look for the snow-capped Pyrenees to the far left. During the final 20 minutes of the flight, stay alert for the circular walls of Carcassonne; it is a highlight of the route.

Cape Matifou
The eastern curve of the Algerian coast featuring rugged cliffs and emerging urban developments.
Balearic Islands
Depending on the exact flight corridor, Menorca and Mallorca are often visible on the eastern horizon.
Gulf of Lion
The sweeping arc of the southern French coastline, including the lagoons near Narbonne and Montpellier.
Canal du Midi
The historic 17th-century canal appears as a winding green line through the Occitanie landscape toward Toulouse.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to see the sunset over the Mediterranean. On clear days, use flight tracking to see if you will pass close to Menorca. When landing from the north (Runway 14), this side offers a better view of the Airbus assembly hangars at Blagnac.
