Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers the most dramatic scenery, featuring the jagged western cliffs of Corsica and a spectacular, close-up perspective of the Mont Blanc massif and Lake Geneva.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🌊

Costa Paradiso

The striking reddish granite coastline and turquoise waters of Northern Sardinia as you depart.

🏝️

Western Corsica

Deep blue bays and the UNESCO-listed Scandola Nature Reserve with its volcanic cliffs.

✨

French Riviera

Glittering views of Cannes, the Esterel Massif, and the Saint-Tropez peninsula.

🏔️

Mont Blanc

Unrivaled views of Europe's highest peak and the surrounding Aiguille du Midi glaciers.

💧

Lake Geneva

The western crescent of the lake, including the city of Geneva and its famous Jet d'Eau.

🌳

Jura Mountains

The lush, green ridge lines forming the natural border between France and Switzerland.

For the best experience, choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat distortion. On morning flights, the sun will be behind you, lighting up the Corsican cliffs and Alpine peaks perfectly. Look down approximately 45-55 minutes into the flight for the best views of the high Alps.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
💎

Costa Smeralda

The world-famous emerald waters and luxury yacht harbors of Northeast Sardinia.

🚤

Strait of Bonifacio

The narrow, windy passage between Sardinia and Corsica, framed by white limestone cliffs.

🏙️

Bastia

The historic port city of Northern Corsica and the long 'finger' of Cap Corse.

📐

The Matterhorn

The iconic pyramid-shaped peak clearly visible on the horizon as you cross the Alps.

🍾

Champagne Region

Neat geometric patterns of world-famous vineyards as you traverse Northern France.

🏭

Charleroi Basin

The fascinating industrial heritage and 'terrils' (spoil heaps) of Southern Belgium during descent.

The right side is excellent for spotting the Italian coast in the distance and the distinctive shape of the Matterhorn. Be aware that during mid-day flights, the sun can be quite strong on this side, potentially causing glare on the window. Watch for the limestone cliffs of Bonifacio early in the flight.
