⛰️

Jura Mountains

See the long, parallel ridges of the Jura range that define the border between France and Switzerland.

Ardennes Forest

As you descend towards Charleroi, the dense, rolling hills of the Belgian Ardennes provide a lush green landscape.

Sit on the left for the most direct view of Mont Blanc. For morning flights, this side avoids the direct glare of the sun, making it better for photography. Watch closely 10-15 minutes after takeoff for the most dramatic alpine scenery.
