Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the extinct volcanoes of the Massif Central and the expansive vineyards of the Champagne region before the final approach into Brussels.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
๐Ÿ”๏ธ

Southern Horizon

A stunning panoramic view of the snow-capped Pyrenees mountains visible to the south during the initial climb.

๐ŸŒ‹

Volcanic Peaks

The dramatic and rugged terrain of the Massif Central, featuring ancient volcanic formations.

โ›ณ

Iconic Dome

A clear view of the Puy de Dรดme, the most famous dormant volcano in the Chaรฎne des Puys range.

๐Ÿพ

Champagne Grids

The world-renowned vineyards of the Champagne region near Reims, appearing as precise green grids.

๐Ÿ™๏ธ

European Capital

Excellent views of the Brussels skyline and the iconic Atomium structure during the final descent into BRU.

Look south immediately after takeoff to catch the Pyrenees before the plane turns north. Morning flights offer the best side-lighting for the volcanoes of central France. During landing, the right side is most likely to see the Brussels city center if the wind favors runways 25R or 25L.

Left Side Highlights
6.5
๐ŸŒ†

The Pink City

Aerial view of Toulouse's unique red-brick architecture and the winding Garonne river shortly after takeoff.

๐ŸŒณ

Green Heart

The lush, rolling hills and dense forests of the Limousin region provide a serene rural landscape.

๐Ÿฐ

Chateau Country

Passing over the western edge of the historic Loire Valley, known for its royal estates and river paths.

๐ŸŒพ

Northern Plains

The geometric patterns of the Picardy agricultural heartland stretch toward the horizon.

๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ช

Belgian Border

The transition from the French countryside into the dense, industrial urban fabric of the Walloon region.

Opt for a window seat ahead of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. Afternoon flights are ideal on this side as the sun will be behind you, illuminating the French countryside perfectly for photography.
