Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side offers a more diverse geographic display, transitioning from the snow-capped Atlas Mountains to the golden fringes of the Sahara and the lush green fan of the Nile Delta before making the turn into Beirut.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
🏔️

Atlas Mountains

Stunning views of the High Atlas range immediately after departing from Casablanca.

🏜️

Sahara Edge

The dramatic meeting point of the golden desert sands and the turquoise waters of the North African coast.

🌿

Nile Delta

A brilliant green triangle of life contrasting sharply with the surrounding Egyptian desert.

🏖️

Gaza and Haifa Coastline

Long stretches of sandy beaches and urban centers visible as you track along the Eastern Mediterranean coast.

🏢

Beirut Corniche

Breathtaking views of the Raouche Rocks and the Beirut shoreline as the plane turns for its final landing.

The right side is superior for landmarks. For the best experience, book an afternoon flight to see the sun set over the sea while the North African coastline glows in gold. Keep your window shade open during the last 30 minutes to catch the Nile Delta and the turn into BEY.

Left Side Highlights
7.4
🌊

Mediterranean Horizon

Continuous panoramic views of the deep blue Mediterranean Sea stretching toward Southern Europe.

🏝️

Mediterranean Islands

Distant sightings of Sardinia and Sicily depending on the specific airway used across the sea.

⛰️

Southern Crete

The rugged southern coastline of Crete is often visible during the mid-to-late portion of the cruise.

🇨🇾

Cyprus Coast

Views of the southern capes of Cyprus as the aircraft prepares for its descent into the Levant.

🏙️

Beirut Northern Suburbs

On the final approach from the sea, see the dense urban landscape of the Matn District and the port area.

Sit on the left for softer, indirect light during midday flights which is better for photography. During winter months, this side offers views of the distant snowy peaks of the Taurus Mountains in Turkey if the flight path stays more northerly.
