Which side of the plane to sit from Montpellier-Méditerranée Airport (Montpellier) to Frankfurt-Hahn Airport (Hahn)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers a more diverse landscape, featuring distant views of the Alps, the winding Rhône corridor, and the picturesque river loops of the Mosel during the final approach into Hahn.
French Alps
On clear days, the distant snow-capped peaks of the Alps and Mont Blanc are visible to the east.
Rhône Valley
Follow the path of the major river through Lyon and its surrounding industrial and agricultural hubs.
Jura Mountains
View the distinct limestone ridges that form the natural border between France and Switzerland.
Upper Rhine Plain
The flat, fertile valley between the Vosges and the Black Forest, a major European transit corridor.
Mosel Loops
Stunning views of the river's horseshoe bends and the world-famous steep vineyards on the descent into HHN.
For the best experience, choose the right side and look out for the Mosel river loops during the last 15 minutes of the flight. This side is especially beautiful during afternoon flights when the low sun highlights the contours of the river valleys.
Massif Central
Aerial perspective of the ancient volcanic landscapes and rugged plateaus of central France.
Cévennes National Park
Dense forests and deep valleys of the southern edge of the Massif Central.
Luxembourg Border
Vistas of the rolling hills and dense woodlands near the border with Germany.
Mosel River West
Glimpses of the winding Mosel river as the aircraft descends towards Hahn.
Sit on the left for softer lighting during morning flights and to avoid direct sun glare. This side is particularly scenic when passing over the volcanic regions of the Puy-de-Dôme if the flight path is slightly western.
