DJE β LUX
Which side of the plane to sit from Djerba Zarzis International Airport (Djerba) to Luxembourg-Findel International Airport (Luxemburg)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a more dramatic perspective of the Mediterranean coastline, including the glitzy French Riviera and a sweeping view across the French Alps and Jura mountains.
Djerba Coastline
Aerial view of the island's white-sand beaches and turquoise lagoons immediately after takeoff.
Corsica West Coast
Dramatic granite cliffs and secluded coves of the Scandola Nature Reserve as you cross the Mediterranean.
CΓ΄te d'Azur
The sparkling cities of Nice, Cannes, and Antibes visible as the aircraft enters European airspace.
Ecrins Massif
Rugged, snow-capped peaks of the Southern French Alps, including glaciers and deep valleys.
Jura Mountains
Linear limestone ridges and dense forests marking the border region between France and Switzerland.
Sit on the left for afternoon flights to avoid direct glare from the sun, which will be to your west. This side offers the clearest views of the French coastline and the high peaks of the Ecrins. During the descent, you may spot the city of Metz and the Moselle river.
Strait of Bonifacio
The narrow, turquoise waterway separating the islands of Sardinia and Corsica.
Ligurian Coast
Views of the busy Port of Genoa and the colorful villages of the Italian Riviera in the distance.
Pennine Alps
Distant views of iconic peaks like the Matterhorn and Monte Rosa rising above the horizon.
Moselle Vineyards
The winding Moselle river valley with its steep-sloped vineyards during the final approach into LUX.
Vosges Mountains
Rounded 'ballon' peaks and dark evergreen forests of Eastern France visible shortly before landing.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to see the sunrise over the Tyrrhenian Sea. It provides a strategic view of the high Swiss Alps in the distance. On the final approach into Luxembourg-Findel, this side often offers a better view of the winding Moselle river loops and the German border.
