FRA โ DJE
Which side of the plane to sit from Frankfurt am Main Airport (Frankfurt) to Djerba Zarzis International Airport (Djerba)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a premier view of the central Swiss Alps and a spectacular perspective of Djerba's coastline and the Roman Causeway upon arrival.
Swiss Alps
Breathtaking aerial views of the snow-capped peaks and glaciers in the Berner Oberland region.
Lake Zurich
The sparkling blue waters of one of Switzerland's most famous lakes as you head south.
Sardinian Coast
The rugged, rocky eastern coastline of Sardinia surrounded by deep turquoise Mediterranean water.
Tyrrhenian Sea
Vast, serene expanses of the Mediterranean, often dotted with cargo ships and ferries.
Djerba Island
The white sands and traditional architecture of Djerba as the plane maneuvers for landing.
Roman Causeway
The historic 7km road connecting the island of Djerba to the Tunisian mainland at El Kantara.
For the best Alpine photography, book a seat in front of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. On morning flights, expect significant glare as the sun rises in the east; however, the views of the island's eastern beaches during the descent are unmatched. Keep your camera ready as you cross the Italian coast for brilliant water contrasts.
Black Forest
Dense, dark green canopies of the Schwarzwald region shortly after departure from Frankfurt.
Mont Blanc
Possible distant views of the highest peak in the Alps to the far west depending on the flight path.
Corsica
The dramatic, jagged mountain spine of the 'Island of Beauty' visible across the sea.
Tunisian Mainland
Views of the Gulf of Gabรจs and the arid, golden landscapes of the North African coast.
Salt Pans
The shimmering, colorful evaporation ponds located near the coastal transition into Tunisia.
Houmt Souk Port
The bustling maritime activity near Djerba's main town during the final approach.
This side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh direct sunlight. You will get a better view of the transition from the lush European landscape to the arid beauty of North Africa. Look for the distinct 'sebhas' (salt lakes) which appear as bright white patches in the landscape as you approach the Tunisian coast.
