Which side of the plane to sit from Lomé-Tokoin Airport (Lome) to Brussels Airport (Brussels)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the dramatic Hoggar Mountains in the central Sahara, the Algerian coastline, and the distant but majestic snow-capped peaks of the Alps as the flight progresses toward Northern Europe.
Hoggar Mountains
Stunning volcanic peaks and ancient rock formations rising from the desert floor in southern Algeria.
Algiers
The dense, white architecture of the Algerian capital nestled against the turquoise Mediterranean sea.
Mediterranean Crossing
Deep azure waters contrasting with the rocky coastlines of North Africa and Southern Europe.
The Alps
A breathtaking panorama of the snow-covered European Alps visible on the eastern horizon while overflying France.
Ardennes Forest
The lush, rolling green hills of southern Belgium and Luxembourg during the final approach into Brussels.
The Hoggar Mountains are the highlight of this route; ensure you are awake approximately 2-3 hours after takeoff. On evening flights, this side experiences a beautiful sunset over the Mediterranean. Use a window seat behind the wing to capture the full landscape without engine obstruction.
Gulf of Guinea
Aerial views of the Togolese coastline and the Atlantic horizon shortly after takeoff from Lomé.
Grand Erg Occidental
Vast, undulating sand dunes of the western Sahara Desert, creating mesmerizing geometric patterns.
Saharan Atlas
The rugged northern edge of the desert where the mountains meet the Algerian high plateaus.
Balearic Islands
Excellent views of Ibiza and Mallorca as the flight crosses the Mediterranean toward France.
Parisian Basin
Depending on the flight path, the sprawl of Paris and the Eiffel Tower may be visible during the descent.
For daytime flights, choose this side to avoid direct sunlight in the afternoon. Watch for the dramatic transition from the lush greenery of Togo to the stark red sands of the Sahara within the first 90 minutes of flight.
