Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The Left Side offers the most dramatic views, including distant glimpses of the Alps, a potential fly-over of the mountainous island of Corsica, and a scenic approach along the Tunisian coastline into the Gulf of Hammamet.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
๐ŸŒฒ

Ardennes Forest

Dense green canopies and rolling hills of southeast Belgium shortly after takeoff.

๐Ÿ”๏ธ

Distant French Alps

On clear days, the snow-capped peaks of the Jura and the western Alps are visible to the east while cruising over France.

๐Ÿ๏ธ

Corsica

Dramatic views of the 'Island of Beauty' with its rugged granite mountains and jagged coastline as you head toward the Mediterranean.

๐ŸŒŠ

Tyrrhenian Sea

Deep blue waters dotted with small islets as the plane transitions from European to African airspace.

๐Ÿ–๏ธ

Gulf of Hammamet

The turquoise waters and long sandy beaches of Nabeul and Hammamet during the descent into Monastir.

Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise over the Mediterranean. During the final approach, this side typically provides the best view of the historic Monastir Ribat and the coastline. Watch for the change from deep blue sea to the light turquoise of the Tunisian shallows.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
โ›ฐ๏ธ

Massif Central

The volcanic landscapes and ancient plateaus of central France provide a textured terrain view.

๐Ÿ™๏ธ

Rhรดne Valley

The winding Rhรดne river and the city of Lyon can often be spotted as the flight path moves south.

๐ŸŒต

Western Sardinia

Views of the wild, rocky western coast of Sardinia and the surrounding crystal-clear waters.

๐Ÿง‚

Sahline Salt Pans

Striking pink and white geometric patterns of the salt evaporation ponds just west of the airport during landing.

๐Ÿ•Œ

Monastir Cityscape

A glimpse of the white-washed buildings and the modern marina area as the plane banks for the runway.

The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. It offers excellent views of the unique Sahline salt pans, which look like a giant pink patchwork quilt from the air. Keep an eye out for the distinct transition from the Mediterranean brush to the more arid Tunisian landscape.
