Which side of the plane to sit from Es Senia Airport (Oran) to Mohamed Boudiaf International Airport (Constantine)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the majestic Tell Atlas mountain range and the transition into the High Plateaus, concluding with a dramatic approach over the rocky canyons near Constantine.
Ouarsenis Massif
Rugged peaks of the Tell Atlas rising sharply from the surrounding plains.
Chréa National Park
Aerial views of dense cedar forests and the high-altitude ski resort area near Blida.
Mitidja Plain
The vast green agricultural heartland of Algeria stretching between the mountains and the sea.
The Bibans Mountains
Look for the 'Iron Gates,' a historically significant and narrow mountain pass.
Sétif Salt Lakes
Shimmering salt flats and sebkhas visible on the high plateaus near Sétif.
Constantine Gorges
Spectacular views of the Rhumel River canyons and the city's famous hanging bridges on final approach.
The right side is ideal for mountain enthusiasts. For the best experience, book an early morning flight to see the Ouarsenis Massif in soft morning light. This side also typically offers the best angle of the Constantine bridges as the plane circles for landing at CZL airport.
Mediterranean Coastline
Vibrant views of the turquoise coastline and the white beaches of Mostaganem.
Ancient Tipaza
Spot the archaeological remains of Roman ruins and the Royal Mausoleum of Mauretania near the shore.
Bay of Algiers
A panoramic view of the 'White City' curving around its iconic crescent-shaped harbor.
Djurdjura Range
The sharp limestone peaks of the Kabylie region, often snow-capped during the winter months.
Gulf of Bejaia
A beautiful maritime vista where the Gouraya mountains meet the Mediterranean Sea.
Choose the left side for sweeping views of the coastline. In the afternoon, the sun will be behind the plane, providing excellent lighting for photos of Algiers and Tipaza. Keep an eye out for the distinctive 'Teeth of Akouker' peaks in the Djurdjura range.
