BVA → ZAD
Which side of the plane to sit from Paris Beauvais Tillé Airport (Beauvais) to Zadar Airport (Zadar)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a superior vantage point for the iconic Venetian Lagoon and the stunning archipelago of the Dalmatian coast during the descent.
Mont Blanc
Distant but majestic views of Western Europe's highest peak if the flight path tracks southward.
Venice and the Lagoon
A highlight of the route; the distinct fish-shaped city and its surrounding islands are clearly visible.
Adriatic Coastline
The turquoise waters and sandy lidos of the Italian coast near Jesolo before crossing the sea.
Kvarner Gulf Islands
Spectacular views of Cres, Krk, and Rab islands characterized by deep blue waters and white stone.
Pag Island
The famous 'moon island' of Croatia, known for its pale, treeless, and rocky landscape.
Zadar Peninsula
A perfect view of the historic old town of Zadar jutting into the sea just before touchdown.
The right side is essential for seeing Venice and the Croatian islands. On afternoon flights, use a polarizing filter if possible to manage the sun's reflection off the Adriatic. The descent into Zadar often features a turn that showcases the entire archipelago on this side.
Champagne Region
Aerial views of the rolling vineyards and historic estates of Eastern France shortly after departure.
Bernese Alps
Dramatic views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks as the flight traverses Swiss airspace.
Lake Zurich
Clear visibility of the long, narrow Swiss lake nestled among the northern Alpine foothills.
Julian Alps
The rugged limestone peaks of Slovenia, including Mount Triglav, visible to the northeast.
Velebit Range
The massive coastal mountain range of Croatia providing a stark backdrop during the final approach.
Sit on the left for the best views of the high Alpine peaks and the green landscapes of Slovenia. For morning flights, this side will be in the shade, offering better conditions for photography without glare.
