LPL β LIG
Which side of the plane to sit from Liverpool John Lennon Airport (Liverpool) to Limoges Airport (Limoges)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the dramatic peaks of North Wales shortly after takeoff and a stunning approach over the lakes of central France.
Snowdonia Peaks
Magnificent views of the Eryri National Park mountains, including the summit of Snowdon to the west.
The Needles
The iconic row of three distinctive chalk stacks rising out of the sea off the Isle of Wight.
Cotentin Peninsula
Distances views of the rugged Normandy coastline and the direction of Mont-Saint-Michel on clear days.
Touraine Vineyards
The geometric patterns of world-renowned vineyards surrounding the city of Tours.
Brenne Natural Park
Known as the 'Land of a Thousand Lakes', this wetland area offers beautiful reflections during the descent.
The right side is ideal for evening flights to witness the sunset over the Atlantic and the English Channel. Watch closely 15 minutes after takeoff for the Welsh mountains and about 20 minutes before landing for the unique lake-heavy terrain of the Brenne region.
Chester & Mersey
Aerial views of the historic walled city of Chester and the winding River Mersey shortly after departure.
Portsmouth Harbour
The bustling naval docks and the Spinnaker Tower are often visible as you exit English airspace.
Alabaster Coast
The striking white chalk cliffs of Upper Normandy near Dieppe as the plane enters French territory.
Loire River Valley
Glittering views of France's longest river and the eastern edge of the famous 'Garden of France'.
Limousin Basin
The lush, green pastoral landscapes and cattle-dotted fields typical of the Haute-Vienne region.
Sit on the left for morning flights to enjoy the illuminated English coastline without the sun's glare. It is the better side for spotting the sprawl of the Midlands and the intricate patterns of the French river systems near OrlΓ©ans.
