ORY → ORN
Which side of the plane to sit from Paris-Orly Airport (Paris) to Es Senia Airport (Oran)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular crossing of the Pyrenees mountain range and a superior view of the Oran coastline and the landmark Santa Cruz fort during the final approach.
Loire Valley Estates
Distant views of the historic chateaus and winding river systems in the heart of France.
The Pyrenees
A dramatic crossing of the snow-capped border between France and Spain with jagged limestone peaks.
Valencia Cityscape
Clear views of the modern City of Arts and Sciences and the expansive Turia gardens.
Fort Santa Cruz
Breathtaking views of the historic fort and chapel perched high on Mount Murdjadjo overlooking Oran.
The right side is essential for seeing the Pyrenees clearly. On the approach to Oran, this side provides the most iconic view of the city's western cliffs and the historic Spanish fort. Evening flights offer stunning golden-hour reflections off the Mediterranean.
Fontainebleau Forest
Large expanse of lush green forest and royal hunting grounds just south of Paris.
Massif Central Peaks
The eastern edges of France's volcanic region, featuring rugged terrain and deep river valleys.
Costa Blanca
Aerial views of the Spanish coastline near Alicante before heading out over the Mediterranean.
Port of Oran
The industrial docks and eastern maritime infrastructure of the city during the final descent.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun as you travel south. Look out for the distant peaks of the Alps on very clear days during the first half of the flight.
