NCL → NBE
Which side of the plane to sit from Newcastle Airport (Newcastle) to Enfidha - Hammamet International Airport (Enfidha)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a superior vantage point for the dramatic approach into Tunisia, offering views of the Cap Bon peninsula and the jagged peaks of the Western Alps during the transit across Europe.
North East Coastline
Immediate views of Tynemouth, the mouth of the River Tyne, and the North Sea coast shortly after takeoff from NCL.
South East England
Glances of the Thames Estuary and the bustling shipping lanes of the English Channel before entering French airspace.
Western Alps
On clear days, the distant snow-capped peaks of the French and Swiss Alps are visible as the flight path heads south.
Corsica & Sardinia
Aerial perspectives of the rugged eastern mountainous ridges of these iconic Mediterranean islands.
Cap Bon Peninsula
A stunning entry into Tunisia, passing the northeastern tip of the country with views of the Mediterranean coastline.
Choose the left side for morning departures to avoid direct glare while enjoying the coastal scenery. During descent into NBE, this side frequently offers the most direct view of the Tunisian coastline and the blue waters of the Gulf of Hammamet. Keep an eye out about 90 minutes into the flight for the best alpine views.
The Pennines
The 'backbone of England' is visible to the west during the initial climb-out from Newcastle.
Parisian Basin
Central France's sprawling agricultural landscapes and distant views of the Paris metropolitan area.
Massif Central
The unique, ancient volcanic terrain and plateaus of central-southern France.
Balearic Sea
Expansive views of the deep blue Mediterranean, occasionally spotting the silhouette of the Balearic Islands.
Gulf of Hammamet
Panoramic views of the long sandy beaches and resort towns as the plane turns for its final approach.
The right side is excellent for afternoon flights to witness the sunset over the Mediterranean. It offers a broader view of the central French countryside. During the final moments of flight, you will see the extensive salt flats and tourist developments surrounding Hammamet.
