MRS → DUB
Which side of the plane to sit from Marseille Provence Airport (Marseille) to Dublin Airport (Dublin)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a front-row seat to the volcanic wonders of central France and the lush, mountainous entry into the Emerald Isle.
Chaîne des Puys
Spot the UNESCO-listed extinct volcanic cones of the Auvergne region in central France.
Loire Valley
Aerial views of the historic châteaux and the winding currents of France's longest river.
Brittany Coast
The rugged cliffs and turquoise waters of the French northwest coastline before the sea crossing.
Wicklow Mountains
Breathtaking views of Ireland's green peaks and Glendalough valley during the descent into Dublin.
For the best experience, sit on the left to capture the dramatic transition from the volcanic Massif Central to the green hills of Ireland. On afternoon flights, the sun will be behind the plane or on the right, providing perfect lighting for photography of the Irish coastline. Watch for the volcanic peaks roughly 45 minutes after departure.
Marseille Skyline
Excellent views of the Old Port, Notre-Dame de la Garde, and the Frioul archipelago upon takeoff.
Distant Alps
On clear days, the snow-capped peaks of the French Alps are visible on the eastern horizon.
St George's Channel
Observe the heavy maritime traffic and cargo ships traversing the waters between Wales and Ireland.
Dublin Bay
A panoramic view of the Poolbeg Chimneys, Howth Head, and the North Bull Island sandbar.
The right side is ideal for the departure phase, offering the best views of Marseille's urban landscape. For morning flights, this side will experience direct sunlight, so keep the window shade down if you want to avoid glare. During the final approach, you may see the Irish Sea and the outskirts of Dublin city depending on the wind direction.
