Which side of the plane to sit from Tripoli International Airport (Tripoli) to Houari Boumediene Airport (Algier)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a continuous view of the stunning Mediterranean coastline and an unparalleled perspective of the Bay of Algiers during the final descent.
Tripoli Waterfront
Aerial view of the Red Castle and the historic harbor immediately after takeoff.
Tunisian Gulfs
Stunning vistas of the Gulf of Gabรจs and the scenic Cap Bon peninsula.
Galite Islands
A glimpse of these rocky volcanic islands sitting off the northern coast of Tunisia.
Bay of Algiers
A magnificent sweep of the Algiers coastline as the plane banks for its final approach.
Alger la Blanche
The iconic white architecture of the Casbah and modern Algiers rising from the sea.
Sit on the right side to avoid direct southern sun glare. Morning flights offer the best lighting for the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean and the bright white buildings of Algiers.
Jefara Plain
View the transition from the Tripoli urban sprawl to the arid Saharan fringes.
Aurรจs Mountains
The rugged, folded peaks of the eastern Atlas range visible over Algeria.
Chott el Hodna
Distant views of the massive endorheic salt lake in the high plateaus.
Tell Atlas
The green slopes of the coastal mountain range as you approach the Mitidja plain.
Watch for the dramatic contrast between the arid Saharan influence and the greener mountain valleys. Best viewed on afternoon flights when the southern sun highlights the geological folds of the Atlas Mountains.
