CDG โ SPU
Which side of the plane to sit from Charles de Gaulle International Airport (Paris) to Split Airport (Split)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an unrivaled panorama of the Southern Alps followed by a spectacular descent over the turquoise waters and white-stone islands of the Dalmatian coast.
Mont Blanc
A distant but majestic view of Europe's highest peak situated to the south of the flight path.
Adriatic Horizon
The dramatic transition from the Italian Po Valley to the deep blue expanse of the Adriatic Sea.
Dalmatian Islands
A stunning bird's-eye view of the archipelago, including the islands of Braฤ, Hvar, and ล olta.
Historic Split
An aerial perspective of the Roman-era city center and Diocletian's Palace as the plane lines up for landing.
Split Harbor
Watch the ferries and yachts leaving the busy port during the final seconds of the approach.
The right side is essential for the iconic island approach. For the best photos of the Split coastline, book a seat behind the wing to avoid engine heat haze. Landing usually occurs from the west, making this the prime spot for viewing the Dalmatian islands at sunset.
Swiss Alps Peaks
Expansive views of the snow-capped ridges and deep glacial valleys of Central Switzerland.
Slovenian Forests
Lush green landscapes and rolling hills as the flight crosses into the Balkan Peninsula.
Dinaric Alps
The stark, rugged limestone beauty of the Croatian hinterland during the final descent phase.
Choose the left side for summer morning flights to avoid direct sunlight glare. This side provides the best perspective of the northern Dinaric Alps and the Velebit mountain range just before the descent begins.
