Search flights from BIA to LUX
Cap Corse
The wild, northern peninsula of Corsica with jagged cliffs and turquoise waters visible immediately after takeoff.
Western Alps
Spectacular views of high-altitude snow-capped peaks including the Mont Blanc massif in the distance.
Ligurian Coast
Aerial perspective of the French Riviera and the rugged coastline of the Var region.
Lake Geneva
The massive crescent-shaped lake with the city of Geneva and its famous fountain often visible.
Lorraine Plateau
The historic landscapes and agricultural patterns of eastern France during the start of the descent.
Sit on the left for the best view of the 'finger' of Corsica right after takeoff. For the best Alpine lighting, a morning flight provides crisp shadows on the peaks. Keep an eye out for the Jet d'Eau in Geneva if visibility is high.
