The Wadden Sea
Stunning views of the UNESCO-listed tidal flats and the Frisian Islands along the Dutch coast.
English Channel
On clear days, see the narrowest part of the channel and the distant horizon toward the United Kingdom.
Arcachon Bay
Look for the unique bird-shaped bay and the Dune of Pilat, the tallest sand dune in Europe, shortly before landing.
Landes Forest
The vast, emerald-green expanse of the largest maritime pine forest in Europe stretching to the Atlantic.
Côte d'Argent
The dramatic 'Silver Coast' with its endless sandy beaches and surf breaks as you approach Biarritz over the ocean.
The right side is unbeatable for coastal enthusiasts. Try to book a late afternoon flight to see the sun reflecting off the Atlantic Ocean. Keep an eye out for the Dune of Pilat about 20 minutes before landing, as it is a major geographic landmark easily spotted from the air.

Øresund Bridge
Aerial view of the massive bridge and tunnel system connecting Denmark to Sweden shortly after takeoff.
Loire Valley
Cruising over the heart of France, look for the winding Loire River and its famous historical chateaus.
The Pyrenees
As the plane descends toward Biarritz, the jagged peaks of the Pyrenees mountain range dominate the southern horizon.
Lower Saxony Plains
Geometric patterns of German farmland and small villages between the Elbe and the Rhine.
Sit on the left if you prefer mountainous scenery; the Pyrenees come into full view during the final 15 minutes of the flight. For early morning flights, this side will be in the shade, providing more comfortable viewing and better photography conditions without sun glare.
