Parisian Skyline
Upon departure from CDG, catch views of the Eiffel Tower and the business district of La Défense as the plane climbs.
Burgundy Vineyards
Cross over the rolling hills of the Côte d'Or, home to some of the world's most famous wine-producing regions.
Mont Blanc Massif
The highlight of the trip: a spectacular view of the highest peak in the Alps and its surrounding glaciers.
Aosta Valley
View the dramatic Italian side of the Alpine range with deep glacial valleys and the peak of Gran Paradiso.
Torino City Center
During the final approach, the Mole Antonelliana and the historic center of Turin are often visible to the left.
The left side is essential for the best view of Mont Blanc. For morning flights, this side will have better lighting on the mountain faces. Request a seat ahead of the wing for an unobstructed view of the Alpine crests. In winter, the contrast between the white peaks and the green Po Valley is particularly striking.

This side provides a closer look at the Vanoise massif and the dramatic descent through the Susa Valley. Watch for the Sacra di San Michele perched on a rocky crag near the end of the flight.
