Timanfaya National Park
Stunning aerial views of the Martian-like volcanic landscapes of northern Lanzarote shortly after takeoff.
La Graciosa
The smallest inhabited Canary Island is visible as you exit the archipelago's airspace.
Brittany Coastline
Dramatic views of the rugged cliffs and islands near the Pointe du Raz as the plane enters French airspace.
Loire Estuary
The massive bridge at Saint-Nazaire and the meeting point of the Loire River and the Atlantic Ocean.
French Countryside
A patchwork of green fields and historic villages across the Normandy and Picardy regions.
Sit on the left for the most dramatic volcanic views within the first 15 minutes of flight. For morning departures, this side remains in the shade, providing better conditions for photography without glare. As you approach Belgium, keep an eye out for the white cliffs of the Alabaster Coast if the flight path tracks slightly westward.

Port of Antwerp
The massive industrial landscape of one of Europe's largest ports is often visible just north of the airport.
