La Rochelle & Islands
Views of the historic port city and the picturesque islands of Ré and Oléron.
Massif Central

Gulf of Lion
The deep blue Mediterranean Sea appearing as the plane turns for its final approach.
Etang de Berre
The massive saltwater lagoon adjacent to the airport, providing a water-side landing sensation.
The right side is unbeatable for the approach into Marseille. As the plane descends, you will likely fly over the Massif Central's peaks. During the final bank towards the runway, you get a panoramic view of the coastline and the blue Mediterranean. Afternoon flights on this side may experience some sun glare, so bring sunglasses.
