Our Recommendation
8.7

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior view of the Mediterranean coastline, potential glimpses of Italian islands, and the dramatic descent over the vast Chott el Djerid salt flats.

Left Side Highlights
8.7
🇫🇷

Parisian Outskirts

Aerial views of the Ile-de-France region and the southern suburbs of Paris immediately after departure.

🌊

French Riviera

Stunning views of the coastline near Marseille and the transition from the European continent to the sea.

🏝️

Mediterranean Islands

Depending on the flight corridor, the northern coastlines of Corsica and Sardinia are often visible to the east.

🏙️

Gulf of Tunis

As you enter Tunisian airspace, catch views of the capital's coastline and the ancient site of Carthage.

🏔️

Atlas Mountains

The rugged peaks of the Tunisian Atlas range provide a dramatic contrast to the coastal plains.

🧂

Chott el Djerid

A breathtaking view of the massive endorheic salt lake, shimmering with white and purple salt crusts during descent.

Choose the left side for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise over the Mediterranean, though be prepared for direct glare. The highlight of this side is the approach into Tozeur; the Chott el Djerid is one of the most unique geographic features in North Africa and is best viewed from the left as the plane aligns with the runway.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🌋

Massif Central

Cross over the volcanic landscapes and green plateaus of central France shortly after takeoff.

🚢

Balearic Sea

A wide expanse of the deep blue Mediterranean with occasional sightings of maritime traffic.

🇩🇿

Algerian Border

The jagged ridgelines of the Tell Atlas mountains along the border between Algeria and Tunisia.

🏜️

Sahara Dunes

The first glimpses of the Great Eastern Erg, featuring rolling orange sand dunes stretching toward the horizon.

🌴

The Great Oasis

A spectacular view of Tozeur's massive palm grove, containing over 200,000 palm trees.

🎥

Star Wars Landscapes

The arid, otherworldly canyons and plateaus near Nefta that served as iconic filming locations.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. It provides a better perspective of the Saharan dune seas and the stark contrast between the lush green oasis of Tozeur and the surrounding desert. Keep your camera ready during the final 15 minutes of the flight for the best desert textures.
