Beauvais Cathedral
On final approach, look for the towering gothic structure of Saint-Pierre de Beauvais, the tallest cathedral vault in the world.
Book an early morning flight to see the Egadi Islands in the best light without glare. On clear days, keep your eyes peeled about 60-70 minutes into the flight for the massive white dome of Mont Blanc. If flying in the late afternoon, the sun will be on this side, so bring sunglasses.

Distant Paris Skyline
On the descent towards Beauvais, you can often spot the Eiffel Tower and the La Défense skyline on the southern horizon.
The right side is ideal for morning flights as the sun will be behind you, providing perfect lighting for photos of the Sicilian coast and the Alps. This side is also better for spotting the lights of Paris from a distance during night arrivals.
