TUN → GVA
Which side of the plane to sit from Tunis Carthage International Airport (Tunis) to Geneva Cointrin International Airport (Geneva)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a superior sequence of landmarks, including the ruins of Carthage at takeoff, the rugged spine of Corsica mid-flight, and an unparalleled close-up view of Mont Blanc during the descent into Geneva.
Search flights from TUN to GVA
Carthage Ruins
Immediately after takeoff, view the ancient archaeological site and the Tunisian Presidential Palace along the coast.
Sardinian Coastline
Clear views of the Emerald Coast's turquoise waters and the dramatic cliffs of northern Sardinia.
Corsican Massifs
Fly parallel to the jagged granite peaks of central Corsica, often snow-capped in winter.
Mont Blanc
The most iconic feature of the route; the highest peak in the Alps appears prominently on the left during the descent.
Jura Mountains
Detailed views of the forested ridges of the Jura range as the aircraft maneuvers for its final approach.
For the best photography, choose a seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. On morning flights, the sun is positioned to the southeast, meaning the left side is perfectly illuminated for capturing the Mediterranean islands and the Alpine peaks. Look out for the 'Mer de Glace' glacier as you pass the Mont Blanc massif.

Sidi Bou Said
Spot the famous blue-and-white village nestled on the cliffs of the Gulf of Tunis shortly after departure.
Tyrrhenian Sea
Vast maritime panoramas with the distant silhouettes of the Tuscan Archipelago and Elba Island visible on clear days.
Pennine Alps
A broad view of the Swiss Alpine chain, including the distinctive pyramid shape of the Matterhorn in the far distance.
Lake Geneva & Jet d'Eau
As the plane banks for its final approach, catch a glimpse of the famous 140-meter tall water fountain in the harbor.
Geneva Cityscape
Aerial views of the Palais des Nations and the international district just before touchdown.
The right side is ideal for travelers arriving in the late afternoon, as the setting sun illuminates the Swiss Alps with a golden glow (Alpenglow). If the aircraft lands on Runway 22, the right side offers the most direct view of the city center and the lake's 'Grand Lac' section.
