๐Ÿšข

English Channel

The busy waterway separating the UK from mainland Europe as you approach the continent.

Normandy Coast

Aerial views of the historic beaches and white chalk cliffs of northern France.

Sit on the left for a chance to see the Aurora Borealis during winter night flights. As you cross the Atlantic at dawn, keep your window shade open to catch the sunrise reflecting off the clouds. Look for icebergs off the coast of Newfoundland in May and June.
