Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Paris to Figari. While the right side wins at takeoff for the Paris panorama, the left side dominates the majority of the flight. Once airborne and tracking southeast, the left side picks up the Burgundy plateau, then the French Alps including Mont Blanc on clear days, then the Italian Ligurian coast, and finally the dramatic Corsican mountain interior on descent. The Alpine section alone makes the left side the stronger overall choice.

During takeoff from Charles De Gaulle (CDG), sit on the Right side for the best views. CDG typically departs eastward on runways 09L/09R or southward on 08R/08L. A right-side seat gives you a clear view south over Paris city center as you climb out, with the Seine river snaking through the urban grid and the Eiffel Tower visible on clear days. The city panorama opens up quickly as you bank southeast toward the Alps. Notable sights include: Paris city center and Seine river bends, Eiffel Tower (on clear days from altitude), Bois de Vincennes forest to the southeast, Marne river valley.

When landing at Sud Corse (FSC), sit on the Left side for the best views. Figari airport sits on the southern tip of Corsica and typically lands on runway 22 (heading southwest) or 04 (heading northeast). On approach from the north on runway 22, the left side faces east toward the dramatic granite peaks of the Alta Rocca range and the Aiguilles de Bavella, while the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Sardinian coastline are visible in the distance. This is the more geologically dramatic view. Notable sights include: Aiguilles de Bavella granite spires, Alta Rocca mountain range, Gulf of Porto-Vecchio coastline, Sardinia visible across the Strait of Bonifacio.

The flight from Charles De Gaulle (CDG) to Sud Corse (FSC) takes Approximately 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours.

The flight tracks southeast from Paris over Burgundy wine country, then crosses the French Prealps near Grenoble. The Mont Blanc massif (4,808m) is visible to the left on clear days near the midpoint. The route then crosses the Ligurian Apennines and the Italian Riviera coastline before crossing the Ligurian Sea toward Corsica. The northern tip of Corsica appears with the Cap Corse peninsula before the aircraft tracks south along the island's mountainous spine toward Figari.
