Search flights from ETZ to TLS
Chaîne des Puys
The star of the flight: a 40km long chain of 80 dormant volcanoes, including the iconic dome of Puy de Dôme.
Dordogne Valley Edges
View the rolling limestone plateaus and deep green valleys that define the transition into southwestern France.
Airbus Assembly Lines
During the final approach into TLS, look out for the massive A350 and A320 assembly plants located on the airport grounds.
The right side is essential for seeing the UNESCO-listed volcanoes of Auvergne mid-flight. Aim for an afternoon flight for the best lighting on the landscape. On the final approach, the right side often provides a better view of the 'Pink City' architecture and the Garonne river before touchdown.

Nancy and the Meurthe
Immediately after takeoff, enjoy views of the historic city of Nancy and the winding Meurthe river valley.
Monts du Cantal
Pass over the eastern edge of the Massif Central, offering views of the rugged, eroded volcanic peaks.
Distant Pyrenees
On clear days during the descent, the majestic snow-capped peaks of the Pyrenees appear on the southern horizon.
Sit on the left if you are flying in the early morning to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is better for spotting the distant silhouette of the Alps on extremely clear days and the rising peaks of the southern Massif Central.
