Corsican Highlands
Fly over the jagged granite peaks and dense forests of the 'Mountain in the Sea'.
The Swiss & French Alps
The flight's crown jewel, offering spectacular views of snow-capped massifs and glacial valleys.
Rhine River Valley
Watch the winding Rhine River and the border regions of France, Germany, and Luxembourg.
Randstad Urban Area
The sprawling metropolitan region of the Netherlands, featuring glass-walled greenhouses and canals.
Port of Rotterdam
On specific arrival patterns, you can see the massive industrial shipping infrastructure of Europe's largest port.
The right side is superior for geography enthusiasts. The Alpine crossing usually occurs mid-flight and is most impressive in winter or spring when snow cover is maximum. During the final approach to Schiphol, watch for the distinct geometric patterns of the Dutch polders and drainage canals.
