Mahón Harbor
A stunning view of one of the world's largest natural harbors immediately after takeoff.
French Riviera
The glitzy coastline of the Côte d'Azur, including views of Marseille and the surrounding calanques.
Mont Blanc
The highest peak in the Alps often stands out prominently above the clouds to the east of the flight path.
Bernese Oberland
Dramatic views of the Swiss high Alps, including glaciers and jagged limestone peaks.
Black Forest
The vast, dark canopy of Germany's Schwarzwald stretching toward the Rhine Valley.
Odenwald
Low mountain ranges and historic castle ruins visible during the final descent into Frankfurt.
The right side is essential for Alpine enthusiasts. For the best lighting on the mountain peaks, aim for a morning or midday flight. Keep your window shade open approximately 40 to 60 minutes into the flight for the most dramatic scenery over the Swiss and French Alps.

Ciutadella Coastline
Aerial views of the western tip of Menorca and its turquoise coves during the initial climb.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic plateaus and rugged terrain of south-central France.
Lake Geneva
The iconic crescent-shaped lake and the city of Geneva visible as you cross the Swiss border.
Vosges Mountains

Choose the left side for evening flights to witness the sunset over the French countryside. This side also avoids the direct glare of the sun during morning departures from Menorca. Look for the Jura Mountains shortly after passing Lake Geneva.
