Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point for the rugged coastlines of the Mediterranean islands, the volcanic peaks of the Massif Central, and the iconic chateaux-dotted landscapes of the Loire Valley during the descent.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🏖️

Gulf of Gabès

Stunning views of the Tunisian coastline and the shallow, sandy shelf of the Mediterranean floor.

🇮🇹

Sardinia or Corsica

Depending on the specific airway, enjoy views of the rugged granite mountains and hidden coves of these Mediterranean islands.

🌋

Massif Central Peaks

Witness the dramatic volcanic landscape of the Puy de Sancy and the Chaîne des Puys in central France.

🏰

Loire Valley

View the 'Garden of France' with the winding Loire River and the historic estates that line its banks.

The right side is ideal for morning flights to see the sun rising over the Alps in the far distance. Pay close attention about 30 minutes before landing to spot the architectural grandeur of the Loire Valley chateaux. In winter, the snow-capped peaks of the Massif Central provide a sharp, beautiful contrast to the green plains of the west.

Left Side Highlights
7.4
🏝️

Djerba Island Exit

Aerial views of the 'Island of Dreams' with its white-washed villages and turquoise lagoons as you depart northward.

🌊

Balearic Sea

Vast stretches of the deep blue Mediterranean, occasionally catching the silhouettes of distant merchant ships.

⛰️

Limousin Plateau

The green, rolling hills and dense forests of south-central France as the plane crosses into the mainland.

🛶

Marais Poitevin

Known as the 'Green Venice', look for the intricate network of canals and marshlands near the Atlantic coast.

Sit on the left for softer, indirect light during midday flights which is better for photography. During the final approach into Nantes from the south, you might catch a glimpse of the Atlantic coastline and the salt marshes of Guérande in the far distance if the flight path swings wide.
