Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Buenos Aires to Paris. The right side wins overall: the spectacular Rio de la Plata view on departure is one of the most dramatic river estuary sights in South America, and on arrival into CDG the right side still gets reasonable views of the Paris basin even if not the city center. The takeoff view alone justifies the right seat for this route.

During takeoff from Ezeiza Ministro Pistarini (EZE), sit on the Right side for the best views. EZE typically departs on runway 11 (eastward) or 29 (westward). On the dominant runway 11 departure heading east, the right side faces north toward the Rio de la Plata estuary and the Buenos Aires metropolitan sprawl. The vast brown-grey expanse of the Plata, one of the widest rivers on earth, is unmistakable from climb-out and dominates the view for several minutes. Notable sights include: Rio de la Plata estuary (enormous brown water mass to the north), Buenos Aires city grid and port district, Dock Sud industrial waterfront, Quilmes and Avellaneda suburban sprawl along the river bank.

When landing at Charles De Gaulle (CDG), sit on the Left side for the best views. CDG's most common arrival is from the southwest on runways 26L/26R, meaning the aircraft approaches from the southwest tracking northeast. The left side faces northwest toward central Paris, giving a clear view of the Seine river bends, the Eiffel Tower district, and the dense Haussmann city grid. The right side faces southeast toward less distinctive suburban terrain. Notable sights include: Seine river and its distinctive meanders through Paris, La Defense business district high-rise cluster west of Paris, dense Haussmann-era Paris city grid, Stade de France visible near Saint-Denis just north of the city.

The flight from Ezeiza Ministro Pistarini (EZE) to Charles De Gaulle (CDG) takes Approximately 13 to 14 hours.

The route tracks northeast from Buenos Aires across the South Atlantic, passing well east of Recife and Natal on the Brazilian coast, then crossing the equatorial Atlantic. Mid-flight passes roughly over the Cape Verde Islands region and the open ocean. The route then crosses the Iberian Peninsula — the Meseta Central plateau of Spain is visible, followed by the Pyrenees mountain range as a clear snow-capped ridge marking the France-Spain border, then the rolling agricultural plains of southwestern France (Aquitaine basin) before descending into the Paris basin.
