Which side of the plane to sit from Zvartnots International Airport (Yerevan) to Charles de Gaulle International Airport (Paris)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a front-row seat to the most iconic landmark of the region, Mount Ararat, immediately after takeoff, followed by superior views of the Alps and potentially the Paris city center on descent.
Mount Ararat
Unobstructed views of the massive snow-capped peaks of Greater and Lesser Ararat shortly after departing Yerevan.
Black Sea Coastline
Stunning vistas of the Turkish and Bulgarian coastlines as the flight transitions from Asia to Europe.
Central Alps
Panoramic views of the Austrian and Swiss Alps, featuring jagged peaks and glacial valleys during the second half of the journey.
Balkan Highlands
Rugged terrain and deep river gorges across the Balkan Peninsula, particularly over Bulgaria and Serbia.
Paris Cityscape
A potential view of the Eiffel Tower and central Paris landmarks depending on the specific approach pattern into CDG.
For the best experience, choose a morning flight when the sun illuminates Mount Ararat from the east. Sit forward of the wing to ensure your view of the mountains is not blocked. Keep your window shade open during the first 15 minutes and the last 20 minutes of the flight for the most dramatic scenery.
Greater Caucasus
The high-altitude peaks of the Greater Caucasus range visible to the north, including distant views of Mount Elbrus.
The Danube River
Aerial views of the winding Danube as it flows through major European capitals like Budapest and Vienna.
Rhine-Main Region
Dense urban centers and the industrial heartland of Germany, including the confluence of the Rhine and Main rivers.
Champagne Region
The rolling hills and geometrically precise vineyards of the Grand Est region in France.
CDG Terminal Complex
A bird's-eye view of the innovative circular architecture of Terminal 1 and the massive logistics hub of Charles de Gaulle.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as it avoids the direct glare of the southern sun. It offers a broader perspective of the European plains and the industrial geography of Germany. During winter, look for the snow-covered forests of the Ardennes as you enter French airspace.
