NCE → LUX
Which side of the plane to sit from Nice-Côte d'Azur Airport (Nice) to Luxembourg-Findel International Airport (Luxemburg)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior panorama of the high Alpine peaks during the climb and a stunning view of the Moselle river valley and Luxembourg's historic skyline upon approach.
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.
Lac de Serre-Ponçon
The vast, brilliant blue reservoir of the Durance river, one of the largest in Western Europe.
Burgundy Plains
The geometric patchwork of prestigious vineyards and historic estates near Dijon.
Morning flights provide the best illumination for the Riviera coastline. Keep your camera ready roughly 15 minutes after takeoff to capture the vivid turquoise of the Alpine lakes.
