Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior mix of coastal views, the volcanic geography of central France, and the best chance to spot the Paris skyline during the descent into Beauvais.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Costa Brava Coastline

Breathtaking views of the Mediterranean shoreline and the Golfe du Lion shortly after takeoff.

🌋

Auvergne Volcanoes

The unique landscape of the Chaîne des Puys, including the iconic Puy de Dôme volcano.

🗼

Paris Cityscape

The Eiffel Tower and the skyscrapers of La Défense are often visible on the horizon during the descent.

⛪

Beauvais Cathedral

The towering Gothic structure of Saint-Pierre marks the final approach into Beauvais-Tillé Airport.

Sit on the right side for the best chance to see Paris in the distance. Morning flights offer beautiful light over the Mediterranean coast. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing for the volcanic parks of central France.

Left Side Highlights
7.4
🏔️

Eastern Pyrenees

The snow-capped peaks of the Pyrenees range are visible immediately after departure from Girona.

🏰

Cité de Carcassonne

On a clear day, the massive medieval fortified city is visible as the flight crosses into France.

🛶

Dordogne River

Meandering river paths and lush green valleys of the Occitanie and Nouvelle-Aquitaine regions.

🏰

Loire Valley Châteaux

The 'Garden of France' reveals its historic estates and grand river bends about 45 minutes before landing.

Choose the left side for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. This side provides a better angle for the Pyrenees during the initial climb and is ideal for spotting the rolling hills of rural France.
