Peneda-Gerês National Park
Directly after takeoff, view the granite peaks and lush green valleys of Portugal’s only national park.
Pyrenees Silhouette
A stunning distant view of the snow-capped Pyrenees mountain range forming the border between Spain and France.
Auvergne Volcanoes
The iconic conical shapes of the Chaîne des Puys, part of France's Massif Central, are clearly visible mid-flight.
Burgundy Vineyards
The golden slopes of the Côte d'Or and the world-renowned wine territories of eastern France.
Ardennes Forest
Dense, rolling hills of the Ardennes region as the flight descends toward Luxembourg's green landscape.
The right side is best for morning flights, as the sun rises in the east and illuminates the landforms without being directly in your eyes for long. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff for the Portuguese mountains and about 45 minutes into the flight for the volcanic regions of central France.

Cantabrian Coastline
Breathtaking views of the rugged northern Spanish coast and the deep blue expanse of the Bay of Biscay.
Bordeaux Estuary
The wide Gironde estuary and the meticulously organized vineyards of the Médoc region.
Loire Valley
Aerial perspectives of the 'Garden of France' and the winding path of the Loire river dotted with historical estates.
Paris Basin
On clear days, the expansive urban sprawl and outskirts of Paris are visible as you head toward the Benelux region.
Sit on the left for afternoon or sunset flights to witness the sun dipping into the Atlantic. This side is also better for avoiding direct glare during midday northbound travel, offering clear views of the French coastline and the wide river systems of western France.
