STN → EGC
Which side of the plane to sit from London Stansted Airport (London) to Bergerac-Roumanière Airport (Bergerac)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a more direct perspective of the winding Dordogne River and the dense concentration of medieval châteaux during the descent into Bergerac, while providing excellent views of the English Channel crossing.

Garden of England
Lush green landscapes of Kent and the North Downs shortly after takeoff from Stansted.
The English Channel
Aerial view of the world's busiest shipping lanes between Dover and Calais.
Loire Valley Châteaux
Glances of historic estates and the wide, shallow banks of the Loire River near Tours.
Dordogne River Valley
Spectacular views of the meandering river and limestone cliffs as the plane aligns for landing.
Bergerac Old Town
A top-down view of the red-roofed medieval center of Bergerac just before touchdown.
For the best experience, book a morning flight to avoid the direct southern sun glare. The left side is particularly rewarding during the final 15 minutes of the flight when the aircraft descends over the Perigord Pourpre region, offering clear views of the river systems that define the area.

Seine Estuary
Views of the industrial port of Le Havre and where the Seine meets the English Channel.

Panoramic views of the historic D-Day landing beaches and the Cotentin Peninsula in the distance.
Bordeaux Wine Region
Expansive views of the neatly manicured vineyards of the Entre-Deux-Mers and Saint-Émilion borders.

The right side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Atlantic coast of France. During winter months, the low sun angle on this side provides dramatic shadows over the agricultural patterns of the Poitou-Charentes region mid-flight.
