Which side of the plane to sit from Weeze Airport (Weeze) to Béziers-Vias Airport (Beziers)?

Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

While both sides offer scenic views of rural France, the right side provides a front-row seat to the dramatic volcanic landscapes of the Massif Central and the rugged peaks of the Cévennes during the descent.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🌲

Ardennes Forest

Lush green landscapes across the Belgian-French border shortly after takeoff from Weeze.

🥂

Champagne Region

Fly over the rolling hills and orderly vineyard patches of the historic Champagne province.

🌋

Massif Central

Witness the spectacular extinct volcanic craters (Puys) of the Auvergne region midway through the flight.

🧗

Cévennes National Park

Stunning views of deep limestone gorges and high plateaus as the plane enters Southern France.

🏰

Languedoc Countryside

As you descend into BZR, enjoy the patchwork of olive groves, vineyards, and medieval French villages.

The right side is superior for evening flights as the sunset illuminates the volcanic peaks of the Massif Central. Pay close attention about 20 minutes before landing to see the dramatic transition from the high mountains to the coastal plains.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🍇

Moselle Valley

Early in the flight, catch views of the winding Moselle river and the vineyard-covered slopes near the German-Luxembourg border.

⛰️

Vosges Mountains

View the rounded, forested summits of the Vosges range stretching across eastern France.

🏔️

The French Alps

On clear days, the snow-capped peaks of the distant Alps, including Mont Blanc, can be seen on the eastern horizon.

🌊

Mediterranean Coast

During the final descent, look for the sparkling blue of the Mediterranean and the lagoons near Montpellier.

⛪

City of Lyon

The flight path often passes to the west of Lyon, allowing a distant view of the confluence of the Rhône and Saône rivers.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. Keep your eyes peeled for the distinct turquoise color of the Étang de Thau lagoon as the plane maneuvers for its final approach into Béziers.
