TUN → SXB
Which side of the plane to sit from Tunis Carthage International Airport (Tunis) to Strasbourg Airport (Strasbourg)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior panorama of the Central Alps, the winding Rhine River, and the scenic transition from the Mediterranean to the heart of Europe.
Ancient Carthage
Aerial view of the archaeological site of Carthage and the picturesque Sidi Bou Said just after takeoff.
Sardinia & Corsica
Overview of the eastern coasts and the narrow Strait of Bonifacio separating the two islands.
High Alps
Spectacular vistas of the Swiss and Italian Alps, including snow-capped peaks and glacial valleys.
Alsace Vineyards
The patchwork of famous vineyards along the 'Route des Vins' during the final descent.
The Rhine River
The silver ribbon of the Rhine marking the border between France and Germany as you approach Strasbourg.
For the most dramatic mountain photography, sit on the right. Morning flights are ideal as the sun illuminates the eastern faces of the Alps. Keep your eyes peeled for the Rhine River during descent, as it signifies your arrival into the historic crossroads of Europe.
Gulf of Tunis
Last views of the Tunisian coastline and the clear turquoise waters of the Mediterranean upon departure.
Western Corsica
Dramatic views of the rugged granite cliffs and deep inlets along the French island's western edge.
Western Alps
Views of the French Alps and the Jura mountain range as the flight heads toward the Rhine valley.
Vosges Mountains
Dense green forests and rolling ridges of the Vosges as you enter the Alsace region.
On evening flights, the left side provides beautiful sunset views over the Mediterranean and the French mainland. It is also the side to choose if you want to avoid direct glare during morning northbound flights. Watch for the coastal contours of Corsica midway through the trip.
