Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point for the Wicklow Mountains after takeoff and the stunning white cliffs of the Normandy coast before descending into Paris.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
โ›ฐ๏ธ

Wicklow Mountains

Beautiful views of the 'Garden of Ireland' during the initial climb out of Dublin.

๐Ÿ–๏ธ

Alabaster Coast

The striking white chalk cliffs of Upper Normandy near Dieppe.

๐Ÿ›ฅ๏ธ

English Channel

Look down to see container ships and ferries crossing the busy shipping lanes.

๐Ÿ

Seine River Meanders

The winding path of the river as it flows through the French countryside towards Paris.

๐Ÿ—ผ

Parisian Horizon

The Eiffel Tower and La Dรฉfense skyline are often visible on the distant horizon during descent.

Sit behind the wing to ensure your view of the Normandy cliffs is not obstructed. On clear afternoons, the sun will be behind you, providing perfect lighting for photos of the Seine. Watch for the Wicklow Mountains immediately after wheels-up from Dublin.

Left Side Highlights

๐ŸŒŠ

Howth Head

A clear view of the northern arm of Dublin Bay shortly after departure.

๐Ÿ”๏ธ

Snowdonia

The highest peaks in Wales are often visible as you cross the Irish Sea.

๐Ÿ™๏ธ

London Outskirts

On clear days, the northern sprawl of London can be seen to the south.

๐ŸŒพ

French Farmland

The geometric patterns of the Picardy region's agricultural fields.

Opt for an early morning flight to see the sunrise reflecting off the Irish Sea. Keep a keen eye out for the Welsh coastline approximately 20 minutes after takeoff. If the plane approaches CDG from the east, you will have a better view of the airport layout.
