Which side of the plane to sit from Geneva Cointrin International Airport (Geneva) to Luxembourg-Findel International Airport (Luxemburg)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side provides the most iconic views, including Lake Geneva and the distant Alps during departure, as well as the scenic Moselle valley on the final approach into Luxembourg.
Lake Geneva
An unparalleled view of the crescent lake and the Jet d'Eau if the flight path allows.
The High Alps
Distant but majestic views of the Mont Blanc massif and the Swiss Alps peaks.
Nancy and Metz
Bird's eye view of these historic cities in the Lorraine region during the cruise phase.
Moselle Valley
The winding river and terraced vineyards visible during the descent into Luxembourg.
The best views occur in the first 10 minutes of flight. If the plane takes off towards the south, the right side will have a spectacular bank over the lake. Morning flights on this side offer the best lighting for photography of the Alps.
Jura Mountains
Stunning limestone ridges and deep valleys marking the Swiss-French border.
French Countryside
A tapestry of rural farmland and small villages in the Franche-Comté region.
Ardennes Fringe
The beginning of the dense forests and rolling hills of the southern Ardennes.
Choose the left side for sunset flights to witness the glow over the Jura mountains. It offers a more understated, peaceful view of the French rural landscape.
