Which side of the plane to sit from Enfidha - Hammamet International Airport (Enfidha) to London Gatwick Airport (London)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Tunisian coastline, the stunning mountain ranges of Corsica, and a distant perspective of the French Alps before crossing the English Channel.
Cape Bon Peninsula
The dramatic northeastern tip of Tunisia extending into the Mediterranean Sea immediately after departure.
Strait of Bonifacio
The narrow, turquoise channel separating the islands of Sardinia and Corsica.
The French Alps
On clear days, the distant snow-capped peaks of the Western Alps are visible to the east while over France.
Paris Basin
The vast urban sprawl and outskirts of the French capital as the flight nears the northern coast.
English Channel
One of the world's busiest shipping lanes, filled with ferries and cargo ships heading toward the North Sea.
White Cliffs
Depending on the approach pattern, catch a glimpse of the chalk cliffs near Beachy Head or the Seven Sisters.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid direct glare. Look out early for the Cape Bon peninsula. Keep your camera ready for the transition from the blue Mediterranean to the rugged mountains of Corsica, which is the scenic highlight of this route.
Hammamet Coastline
Clear views of the popular Tunisian resort beaches and the turquoise Mediterranean waters shortly after takeoff.
Western Corsica
Rugged granite cliffs and secluded coves along the western edge of the 'Island of Beauty'.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic landscapes and green plateaus of central France as you head north.
Loire Valley
The winding Loire River and the historic landscape of the 'Garden of France'.
English Countryside
The patchwork fields of West Sussex and the South Downs during the final descent into Gatwick.
Sit on the left for sunset views on evening departures, as the sun will be positioned to the west over the Mediterranean. It is also the better side for seeing the western coast of Sardinia if the flight path takes a more westerly route.
