Which side of the plane to sit from Enfidha - Hammamet International Airport (Enfidha) to Birmingham International Airport (Birmingham)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for witnessing the rugged coastline of Corsica, the sprawling French Alps in the distance, and the potential for a spectacular aerial view of London during the descent into the UK.
Cap Bon Peninsula
The northeastern tip of Tunisia, offering a final look at North Africa's rugged geography before the sea crossing.
Corsican Cliffs
Dramatic views of the white limestone cliffs of Bonifacio and the mountainous interior of the 'Island of Beauty'.
Distant French Alps
On clear days, look east across the Rhone Valley to see the snow-capped peaks of the Alps stretching along the horizon.
Greater Paris
As the flight heads north through France, the distant urban sprawl and lights of Paris are often visible to the east.
London & Home Counties
Frequent flight paths provide a panoramic view of the Thames Estuary and the London skyline before turning toward the Midlands.
For the best experience, choose a window seat forward of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of Corsica. Morning flights provide excellent lighting for the Alps on the eastern horizon. During winter months, the snow-covered peaks in France are a major highlight on this side of the aircraft.
Gulf of Hammamet
Immediate views of the turquoise Tunisian coastline and the resort beaches of Hammamet right after takeoff.
Western Sardinia
Aerial perspectives of the rocky Capo Caccia and the historic coastal town of Alghero as you traverse the Mediterranean.
Marseille & Gulf of Lion
A clear view of the French Mediterranean entrance, including the Frioul archipelago and the sprawling port of Marseille.
Loire Valley
Glimpses of the winding Loire River and the verdant countryside of central France, known for its historic chateaus.
Isle of Wight
As you cross the English Channel, look down for the distinct diamond shape of the Isle of Wight and the Solent.
The left side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid direct sunlight and enjoy the golden hour over the French countryside. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff for the high-contrast coastline of Tunisia. In the UK, this side often sees the Cotswolds during the final approach into Birmingham.
