Loire Valley Châteaux
Aerial views of the winding Loire River and historical French estates shortly after departure.
Mont Blanc
Dramatic proximity to the highest peak in the Alps, often passing just north of the summit.
Lake Geneva
The crescent-shaped alpine lake is often visible to the north when crossing the French-Swiss border region.
The Dolomites
Distinctive jagged limestone peaks visible to the north as the plane crosses into Northern Italy.
Venice Historic Center
The quintessential view of the 'S' shaped Grand Canal and St. Mark's Square on final approach.
Book a window seat on the left for the approach into Venice. If the aircraft lands on Runway 04L or 04R, the left side offers the famous 'Venice from above' view. Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you, perfectly illuminating the Alps and the Venetian Lagoon.
