Gulf of Hammamet
Aerial views of the sparkling Tunisian coastline and resort areas immediately after takeoff.
Sardinia & Corsica
Dramatic rugged peaks and turquoise coastal fringes as you traverse the Mediterranean.
French Alps (Distance)
On clear days, the snow-capped peaks of the Southern Alps are visible on the far eastern horizon.
Paris Basin
Crossing central France provides views of the sprawling urban landscapes and winding Seine river.
English Channel
Busy shipping lanes and the transition from the French coast to the English South Coast.
Severn Bridges
The Prince of Wales Bridge and M48 Severn Bridge are clearly visible during the descent into Cardiff.
Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side is crucial for the final approach into CWL, as most flight paths bank over the Bristol Channel, giving you a perfect view of the Severn Estuary. Look out for the islands of Flat Holm and Steep Holm about 10 minutes before landing.
