Which side of the plane to sit from Falcone–Borsellino Airport (Palermo) to Nantes Atlantique Airport (Nantes)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Tuscan islands, a glimpse of the distant Alps, the dramatic extinct volcanoes of Central France, and the final approach over the Loire Valley's historic landscape.

Tuscan Archipelago
Exceptional views of Elba, Capraia, and Gorgona islands dotting the sea between Corsica and the Italian mainland.
Southern French Alps
On clear days, the snow-capped peaks of the Ecrins and the high Alps are visible on the distant horizon to the northeast.
Chaîne des Puys
The spectacular alignment of dormant volcanoes in the Massif Central, including the iconic conical Puy de Dôme.
Loire Valley
The meandering Loire River and the verdant countryside of the 'Garden of France' during the final descent into Nantes.
For the best photography of the Auvergne volcanoes, choose the right side. In the late afternoon, this side captures the 'Golden Hour' light hitting the Loire River, though you may face some direct sunlight during the middle of the flight.

Ustica Island
A solitary volcanic island rising sharply from the Tyrrhenian Sea shortly after departure from Palermo.
Corsican West Coast
The rugged, dramatic red granite cliffs and the Scandola Nature Reserve along the western edge of Corsica.
Marseille & Calanques
A panoramic view of France's oldest city and the limestone coastal inlets stretching toward the west.
Bay of Biscay
As you turn toward Nantes, the shimmering Atlantic horizon becomes visible to the far west.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is also preferred if the flight path takes a more westerly route over the open Mediterranean, offering vast sea-to-sky horizons.
