CDG β TUN
Which side of the plane to sit from Charles de Gaulle International Airport (Paris) to Tunis Carthage International Airport (Tunis)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a spectacular vantage point for the French Alps and the legendary CΓ΄te d'Azur, followed by a scenic approach over the ancient ruins of Carthage and the village of Sidi Bou Said before landing.
Parisian Landmarks
Catch glimpses of the Seine and eastern Paris suburbs immediately after departure from CDG.
French Alps
Panoramic views of snow-capped peaks in the distance as the flight traverses southeastern France.
French Riviera
Stunning aerial views of the Mediterranean coastline, including the areas near Nice and Monaco.
Corsica Coastline
Views of the rugged eastern cliffs and turquoise waters of the 'Isle of Beauty'.
Carthage Ruins
Ancient Roman archaeological sites and the iconic Punic ports visible during the final approach.
Sidi Bou Said
The famous blue-and-white clifftop village is often visible just before touchdown at Tunis Carthage.
For the best experience, sit forward of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the descent into Tunis. This side is particularly rewarding on morning flights when the sun illuminates the Tunisian coastline. Look out for the distinct circular shape of the Punic Port of Carthage during the final minutes of flight.
Palace of Versailles
Depending on the takeoff path, the grand gardens and palace are often visible to the west of Paris.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic plateaus and green valleys of central France.
Port of Marseille
A high-altitude view of France's largest commercial port and the surrounding Calanques.
Sardinia
The wild western coastline and rocky interiors of the Italian island of Sardinia.
Mediterranean Horizon
Uninterrupted views of the deep blue sea and spectacular sunsets on evening flights.
The right side is the preferred choice for afternoon flights to avoid direct sun glare from the south. While mostly over water in the middle segment, it offers excellent views of the Rhone Valley and the rugged terrain of Sardinia. Keep your camera ready for the transition from the Mediterranean to the North African coastline.
