FRA โ NBE
Which side of the plane to sit from Frankfurt am Main Airport (Frankfurt) to Enfidha - Hammamet International Airport (Enfidha)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the most famous peaks of the Swiss Alps and a stunning aerial tour of the Mediterranean's largest islands.
Rhine Valley
The winding Rhine River and the lush vineyards of the Baden wine region.
Bernese Oberland
Breathtaking views of the 'Big Three' peaks: Eiger, Mรถnch, and Jungfrau.
Corsica
The rugged, mountainous spine of the French island rising sharply from the Mediterranean.
Sardinian Coast
The famous emerald-green waters and white sand beaches of the Costa Smeralda.
Cap Bon Peninsula
The scenic tip of Tunisia visible as the aircraft banks for its approach to NBE.
The right side is the 'mountain side' for this route; the proximity to the Bernese Alps is the journey's highlight. Afternoon flights on this side will experience significant sun glare, so bring polarized sunglasses. Keep your camera ready about 45-60 minutes into the flight for the best Alpine views. As you approach Tunisia, the right side often sees the transition from the deep blue Mediterranean to the golden sands of the North African shore.
Frankfurt Skyline
On a southerly departure, catch a glimpse of the 'Mainhattan' skyscrapers and the banking district.
Central Swiss Alps
Dramatic views of the Glarus and Graubรผnden mountain ranges as you cross into Italy.
Milan & Lombardy
The sprawling urban expanse of Northern Italy's fashion capital and the fertile Po Valley.
Tuscan Archipelago
Far-off views of the Italian coastline and the island of Elba emerging from the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Gulf of Hammamet
The final descent offers views of the busy shipping lanes and the azure Tunisian coastline.
Sit on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you, providing better lighting for photos of the Italian mainland. Watch for the sharp contrast between the snowy Alps and the green Po Valley. During the descent into Enfidha, look for the salt lakes (Sabkha) inland from the coast, which appear as white or pinkish crusts depending on the season.
