Aiguilles de Bavella
The dramatic, jagged granite needles of the Alta Rocca mountains visible shortly after climbing out of Figari.
French Alps Panorama
A sweeping view of the snow-capped Alpine peaks, including Mont Blanc, visible on the horizon for much of the mid-flight.
Rhône & Burgundy
The geometric patterns of world-famous vineyards and the winding path of the Rhône River as the plane heads north.
Fontainebleau Forest
The vast green expanse of the historic royal hunting grounds just south of the Paris metropolitan area.
The right side is ideal for morning flights when the sun illuminates the Alps to the east. Keep your camera ready immediately after takeoff from FSC, as the plane often turns over the dramatic southern Corsican landscape. Be aware that during the summer, the sun can be quite strong on this side during late morning and early afternoon.

Western Corsica Coastline
Stunning views of the rugged granite cliffs and turquoise bays of the Gulf of Valinco shortly after takeoff.
Marseille & Calanques
View the limestone cliffs of the Calanques National Park and the bustling port of Marseille as you cross into mainland France.
Massif Central
Observe the ancient dormant volcanoes and craters of the Chaîne des Puys in the Auvergne region.
Paris Cityscape
On many approaches to Orly, this side provides the most iconic views of the Eiffel Tower and the Montparnasse Tower.
Select the left side for the highest probability of seeing the Eiffel Tower and the center of Paris during the final descent into Orly. This side is also preferable for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Massif Central and the Atlantic-facing landscape of western France.
