Which side of the plane to sit from Bergerac-Roumanière Airport (Bergerac) to Exeter International Airport (Exeter)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a more scenic approach into Devon, featuring the iconic red sandstone cliffs of the Jurassic Coast and a better angle of the Exe Estuary during the final descent.
Dordogne River & Vineyards
Immediately after takeoff, enjoy bird's-eye views of the winding Dordogne River and the lush Perigord Pourpre wine estates.
The Channel Islands
Mid-flight, you may spot the silhouettes of Jersey and Guernsey rising from the English Channel, depending on the specific air corridor.
Jurassic Coast
As the plane descends, look for the striking red cliffs of Sidmouth and Budleigh Salterton, part of England's first natural World Heritage Site.
Exe Estuary
A magnificent view of the sandy banks and wildlife habitats where the River Exe meets the sea at Exmouth.
For the most dramatic lighting, choose an evening flight; the sun setting over the Atlantic illuminates the Devon coastline in gold. On departure, look down quickly to catch the intricate patterns of the Bergerac vineyards. During descent, stay alert about 10 minutes before landing to catch the coastal transition.
Bergerac Town Center
Get a clear view of the medieval streets and the historic Old Port area of Bergerac just after departure.
Cotentin Peninsula
As you leave French airspace, catch the rugged coastline of Normandy and the port city of Cherbourg in the distance.
Exeter Cathedral
During the final turn for landing, the twin towers of the historic cathedral are often visible nestled in the city center.
Dartmoor National Park
On clear days, the distant wild granite tors and rolling moorland of Dartmoor provide a stunning backdrop to the west.
The right side is excellent for spotting the urban layout of Exeter and the rolling hills of the Devon countryside. If the wind is from the west, the plane will loop around the city, providing a panoramic view of the Devon 'red lands' and the distant hills of Dartmoor.
