🏙️

Nice Old Town

A perfect bird's-eye view of the red-tiled roofs of Vieux Nice and the Port Lympia basin.

🏔️

Massif des Écrins

Dramatic views of the Barre des Écrins, the most southerly 4,000-meter peak in the Alps.

🛣️

Nancy & Metz

Clear views of the historic urban centers and the winding Moselle river in the Grand Est region.

🏰

Luxembourg City

If landing on Runway 24, look for the deep Alzette river valley and the historic fortifications.

On clear days, look far toward the horizon to spot the silhouette of Mont Blanc. During the winter months, this side provides spectacular sunset views over the snowy French countryside.

Baie des Anges

Exquisite views of the turquoise Mediterranean coastline and the Antibes peninsula immediately after takeoff.

🏔️

Mercantour National Park

Rugged limestone peaks and deep glacial valleys of the southernmost French Alps.
