Wadden Sea
The UNESCO-listed tidal flats and Frisian Islands along the Dutch coast are visible mid-flight.
Amsterdam
Panoramic views of the Dutch capital and the distinct semi-circular canal belts if the path is inland.
Brussels
The dense urban center of the European capital and the surrounding Belgian countryside.
Northern French Forests
Deep green expanses of the Chantilly and Halatte forests as you enter the Île-de-France region.
Choose the left side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you and reduce glare. Look out early for the Norwegian fjords. During the descent, you will have a better perspective of the dense urban sprawl of Northern Europe and inland waterways of the Netherlands.

The impressive storm surge barriers and engineering marvels of the Dutch coastal defense system.
French Opal Coast

Parisian Horizon
If the flight path permits a western approach, the Eiffel Tower and La Défense skyline appear on this side.
The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to witness the sunset over the North Sea or English Channel. If the wind is from the west, the right side often offers the best views of central Paris landmarks during the final descent into CDG. Watch for the coastal barriers in the Netherlands which are more visible from this side.
