Monts du Cantal
Dramatic views of Europe's largest stratovolcano complex and its deep radial valleys right after takeoff.
Loire Valley Châteaux
Occasional glimpses of the winding Loire River and historic estates as you cross into Central France.
Sologne Forest
A sprawling mosaic of dense woodlands and thousands of small ponds characteristic of this marshy region.
Paris Landmarks
Often provides a panoramic view of the Eiffel Tower and Montparnasse Tower during the final descent stages.
Choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine glare. For afternoon flights, the sun will be on this side, offering a golden hour glow over the Auvergne volcanoes. During the final 10 minutes, keep your camera ready for the Paris skyline if the flight approaches from the west.
