Teide and Fuerteventura
Spectacular views of Tenerife's Mount Teide in the distance and the nearby arid landscape of Fuerteventura during takeoff.
Picos de Europa
The jagged limestone peaks of northern Spain may be visible as you cross the Cantabrian coast.
Bordeaux Wine Region
Vast, geometric patterns of world-renowned vineyards stretching across the Gironde department in southwest France.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic plateaus and green highlands of central France provide a textured landscape below.
Swiss Alps Horizon
On clear days, the snow-capped peaks of the Swiss Alps appear on the distant southeastern horizon during the approach.
The Black Forest
The dark, dense canopy of Germany's Schwarzwald is clearly visible to the east as the plane aligns with the runway at BSL.
The right side is the best choice for afternoon or evening flights, as the sun will be on the opposite side, providing perfect lighting for photos. Look for the distinctive 'V' shape of the Rhine river valley as you approach the airport, and watch for the distant Alps which are most visible in the winter months when the air is crisp.

Vosges Mountains
The rounded, forested peaks of the Vosges range in eastern France visible during the descent into the tri-border area.
