Which side of the plane to sit from Pula Airport (Pula) to Paris Beauvais Tillé Airport (Beauvais)?

Istrian Coastline
Clear views of the crystal-clear Adriatic Sea and the rugged western shore of Croatia shortly after takeoff.
Venetian Lagoon
A distant view of the historic city of Venice and its surrounding islands as the plane tracks northwest.
The Swiss & Italian Alps
Panoramic views of the high peaks of the central Alps, including potential sightings of the Matterhorn depending on the specific corridor.
Lake Geneva (Lac Léman)
The iconic crescent-shaped lake spanning the border of Switzerland and France, framed by mountain ridges.
Paris Distant Skyline
During the descent into BVA, looking south may reveal the Eiffel Tower and the skyscrapers of La Défense on the horizon.
Sit on the left for morning flights to have the sun behind you, providing perfect lighting for photography of the Alps. Keep a sharp eye out about 20 minutes before landing; if the flight path approaches from the east, the Eiffel Tower is often visible in the distance to the south.

The Dolomites
The jagged, pale limestone peaks of the Italian Dolomites are often visible to the north while over northern Italy.
Milan Outskirts
Views of the dense urban sprawl of northern Italy's Lombardy region and the surrounding lakes like Como.
Champagne Region
The geometric patterns of world-famous vineyards near Reims as the flight enters northern France.
Oise-Pays de France
The lush forests and rural landscapes of the regional natural park just before touching down in Beauvais.
The right side is ideal for afternoon departures to avoid the harsh glare of the setting sun. It provides a better angle for seeing the high-contrast limestone peaks of the Dolomites. Watch for the 'V' shaped patterns of the French agricultural heartland during the final third of the flight.
