Search flights from BOH to CCF
Jurassic Coast
Stunning views of Old Harry Rocks and the chalk cliffs of Dorset immediately after takeoff.
Mont Saint-Michel
The famous island monastery is often visible in the distance when crossing the Normandy/Brittany border.
Dordogne River
Observe the deep green valleys and limestone plateaus of the Périgord region in central-south France.
The Pyrenees
Dramatic, snow-capped peaks forming a natural border with Spain dominate the horizon during the final approach.
Sit on the right for the most dramatic scenery. Watch for the Jurassic Coast within the first 5 minutes of flight. As you approach Carcassonne, the Pyrenees will grow larger on the horizon; late afternoon flights provide the best lighting for these peaks. Keep your camera ready for the medieval Cité de Carcassonne which may appear just before touchdown.

Isle of Wight
Aerial perspective of the Solent and the western tip of the island, including The Needles.
Normandy Beaches
Historic D-Day landing sites such as Gold and Juno beaches visible as you cross the French coast.
Loire Valley
Spot the winding Loire River and potentially some of the smaller châteaux near the city of Tours.
Gulf of Lion
Distant views of the Mediterranean blue as the flight approaches the Languedoc region.
On the left, look out early for the Isle of Wight's white cliffs. For midday flights, the sun will be on this side, so window shades might be necessary until the descent. It provides the best angle for spotting the urban sprawl of Caen and the eastern edges of the Massif Central.
