PMILUX

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior panoramic view of the distant French and Swiss Alps, the winding Rhône river, and the scenic Moselle valley vineyards during the descent into Luxembourg.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏝️

Bay of Alcúdia

Crystal clear turquoise waters and sandy beaches of northern Mallorca visible during the initial climb.

🏔️

French & Swiss Alps

A stunning distant horizon of snow-capped peaks, often including Mont Blanc on clear days.

🏙️

Lyon and the Rhône

The confluence of the Rhône and Saône rivers as the flight passes through eastern France.

⛰️

Vosges Mountains

The forested ridges and high-altitude lakes of the Vosges range in the Grand Est region.

🍷

Moselle Valley

Winding river loops and steep terraced vineyards during the final approach into LUX.

The right side is the 'mountain side'. For the best lighting on the Alps, choose an afternoon flight when the sun is in the west. Keep your camera ready about 15 minutes before landing to capture the picturesque Moselle river loops near the German-Luxembourg border.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Serra de Tramuntana

Dramatic views of Mallorca's UNESCO-listed northern mountain range immediately after takeoff.

🌊

Gulf of Lion

The sweeping coastline of southern France as the plane crosses from the Mediterranean to the mainland.

🌋

Massif Central

Views of the ancient volcanic plateaus and rolling green hills of south-central France.

🍇

Burgundy Wine Region

The meticulously organized patterns of the famous 'Côte d'Or' vineyards near Dijon.

🌳

Ardennes Forest

Deep green expanses of dense woodland stretching across the French-Luxembourgish border.

For the best experience, sit on the left during morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. Be ready for a sharp view of the Mallorcan cliffs within the first 10 minutes of flight. This side is also excellent for observing the rural landscapes of central France.
