Which side of the plane to sit from Asturias Airport (Aviles) to Charles de Gaulle International Airport (Paris)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior perspective of the dramatic Picos de Europa mountains shortly after takeoff and typically provides a clearer view of the Paris city center and the Eiffel Tower during the final approach into CDG.
Search flights from OVD to CDG
Picos de Europa
Stunning limestone peaks of the Cantabrian Mountains visible to the southeast shortly after departure.
Île de Ré & Oléron
Clear views of the distinctive white-sand islands and the long bridges connecting them to the French mainland.
Loire Valley Châteaux
Aerial glimpses of historic estates and winding river bends near the cities of Saumur and Tours.
Paris Landmarks
A high-altitude panorama of the Eiffel Tower, Sacré-Cœur, and the Seine when the flight path enters the Paris basin from the south.
The right side is highly recommended for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Bay of Biscay. For the best chance to see the Eiffel Tower, choose a seat behind the wing to ensure your view isn't obstructed by the engine during the descent into CDG.

Costa Verde
The rugged, emerald-colored cliffs and hidden beaches of the Asturian coastline immediately following takeoff.
Saint-Nazaire
The massive shipyards and the sprawling mouth of the Loire River where it meets the Atlantic.
Normandy-Maine Park
Dense clusters of ancient forests and rolling agricultural patchwork across northwestern France.
La Défense
The modern, geometric skyscraper district of Paris as the plane begins its final turn toward the runway.
Sit on the left for the best morning light on the Spanish coast without the glare of the rising sun. During the landing at CDG, if the plane approaches from the west, you may see the modern skyline of La Défense.
