Which side of the plane to sit from Charles de Gaulle International Airport (Paris) to Zvartnots International Airport (Yerevan)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior visual experience, combining the majesty of the Alps mid-flight with the legendary view of Mount Ararat during the descent into Yerevan.
The Alps
Spectacular views of the Swiss and Austrian Alps, often featuring snow-capped peaks and glacial valleys.
Lake Constance
The large, shimmering blue lake bordered by Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.
The Blue Danube
Tracing the path of Europe's second-longest river as it winds through Central Europe.
Mount Ararat
The legendary snow-capped dormant volcano; it dominates the horizon and is the highlight of the approach to Yerevan.
Yerevan Pink City
The unique pink-tufa architecture of the Armenian capital becomes visible as the plane lines up with the runway.
Khor Virap Region
The plains surrounding the historic monastery near the Turkish border during the final landing phase.
The right side is essential for the iconic view of Mount Ararat. During the morning, the sun will be on this side, so bring sunglasses. For the most dramatic view of Ararat, choose a seat toward the back of the cabin to include the wing for scale in your photos.
Parisian Suburbs
Aerial views of the French capital's eastern districts and the winding Marne River shortly after takeoff.
Black Forest
The dense, dark evergreen canopy of southern Germany's famous mountain range.
Carpathian Mountains
The rugged and forested arc of the Romanian Carpathians stretching toward the horizon.
Black Sea North Coast
A vast expanse of deep blue water as the flight leaves European airspace.
Greater Caucasus
Glaciated high-altitude peaks marking the border between Europe and Asia as you enter the Caucasus region.
Mount Aragats
The four-peaked volcanic massif, Armenia's highest point, visible during the final descent into EVN.
Sit forward of the wing to capture the best photos of the Greater Caucasus without engine glare. For late afternoon flights, this side will be in the shade, providing more comfortable lighting for photography.
