Chaîne des Puys
The UNESCO-listed dormant volcanic peaks of the Massif Central region in Central France.
Loire Valley
Lush vineyard landscapes and occasional glimpses of historic chateaus scattered across the valley.
Isle of Wight
An iconic view of the island, including the chalk stacks of 'The Needles' during the descent.
The Solent
A bustling waterway filled with yachts and ferries separating the mainland from the Isle of Wight.
New Forest National Park
Vast stretches of ancient woodland and heathland just before touchdown at Bournemouth.
Morning flights are ideal for the right side to avoid direct sun glare while crossing France. The highlights occur late in the flight; once you cross the English Channel, the Isle of Wight and the Needles are unmistakable landmarks. For the best volcanic views, look out over Central France roughly 40 minutes into the journey.

Loire Estuary
The winding mouth of the Loire River near Saint-Nazaire as it meets the Atlantic.
