Paris Cityscape
Aerial views of the southern Paris suburbs and potentially the Eiffel Tower depending on the takeoff direction.
French Alps
On clear days, the jagged, snow-capped peaks of the Western Alps are visible to the east while flying over southern France.
French Riviera
Spectacular views of the Mediterranean coastline, often passing near the vibrant blue waters of Marseille and the Calanques.
Cap Bon
The first glimpse of Tunisia, featuring the fertile peninsula that juts out into the Mediterranean Sea.
Hammamet Gulf
Clear views of the white-sand beaches and luxury resorts lining the Gulf of Hammamet.
Djerba Lagoon
A stunning final approach over the turquoise shallow waters surrounding the 'Island of Dreams'.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. This side is superior for spotting the transition from the rugged European coast to the North African landscape. Watch for the alpine silhouette about 30-40 minutes into the flight. During the descent, keep your camera ready for the contrast between the deep blue Mediterranean and the light turquoise shallows of Djerba.

Distant views of the mountain range marking the border between France and Spain to the far west.
Sardinia Coastline
The flight path often passes near the western coast of Sardinia, offering views of its rocky cliffs and hidden coves.
Sebkhet Halk el Menzel
Large salt flats and coastal lagoons visible along the Tunisian Sahel region.
Gulf of Gabès
The unique landscape where the Sahara desert begins to meet the Mediterranean sea.
El Kantara Causeway
The ancient Roman road connecting the southern tip of Djerba to the Tunisian mainland.
The right side is excellent for afternoon flights to enjoy the golden hour light over the Mediterranean. It offers a better view of the Roman bridge (El Kantara) if the plane approaches Djerba from the south or west. Look for the shimmering salt pans as you cross into Tunisian airspace, which creates a mosaic-like pattern on the ground.
