Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Paris to Tunis. The left side delivers the iconic Paris panorama on departure, which is the visual highlight of the route. The landing views on the right are genuinely good but the Gulf of Tunis approach is less dramatic than the Paris cityscape. Over the full flight, the left side also tracks closer to the Alps during the cruise over southeastern France, with Mont Blanc and the main Alpine chain visible as a distant white ridge to the east.

During takeoff from Charles De Gaulle (CDG), sit on the Left side for the best views. CDG typically departs eastward on runways 09L/09R or southward on 27R/27L depending on wind. On the most common eastward departure, the left side gives you a clear view back over central Paris — the Seine river bends, the Eiffel Tower, and the dense Haussmann grid are all visible during the climbing left turn toward the southeast. On southward departures, the left side tracks along the western suburbs toward Versailles. Notable sights include: Seine river bends through central Paris, Eiffel Tower and Champ de Mars, La Défense business district towers to the west, Bois de Boulogne forest patch.

When landing at Carthage (TUN), sit on the Right side for the best views. Tunis-Carthage airport sits on the coast and typically lands on runway 01 (northward approach from the south) or runway 29 (westward approach). On the common runway 01 approach from the south, the right side faces east over the Gulf of Tunis, giving you the coastline, the ancient site of Carthage on the peninsula, and the shallow Lake of Tunis. On runway 29, the right side looks north over the Gulf of Tunis. Notable sights include: Gulf of Tunis coastline, Lake of Tunis (Lac de Tunis) shallow lagoon, Carthage peninsula ruins area, Cap Bon peninsula visible to the southeast.

The flight from Charles De Gaulle (CDG) to Carthage (TUN) takes Approximately 2 hours 30 minutes.

The route crosses southeastern France over Burgundy and the Rhône valley, where the Alps are visible as a white ridge to the left (east). Over the Mediterranean the flight passes between Sardinia and the Italian coast. The Tyrrhenian Sea and then the central Mediterranean are largely featureless water. The Sicilian Channel and the Tunisian coastline appear in the final 30 minutes, with the Atlas mountain foothills of northern Tunisia visible as brown ridges on descent.
