Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Tel-aviv to Paris. While the landing approach favors the left, the takeoff scenery from the right side—Mediterranean coastline, Judean Hills, and Dead Sea—is more visually dramatic and geographically distinctive than the relatively uniform farmland and forests of the Île-de-France approach zone.

During takeoff from Ben Gurion (TLV), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right-side seats offer views of the Mediterranean coastline and the Judean Hills as the aircraft climbs northwestward from Ben Gurion. The Dead Sea and Jordan Rift Valley are also visible to the east on the right side during initial climb. Notable sights include: Mediterranean Sea (western horizon), Judean Hills (eastern ridge), Dead Sea (southeast, visible as a dark elongated depression), Tel Aviv urban sprawl (directly below during climb-out).

When landing at Charles De Gaulle (CDG), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left-side seats provide excellent views of the Seine River, Paris city landmarks, and the approach corridor over the Île-de-France region. The aircraft descends over the Seine's characteristic meanders and the urban sprawl of greater Paris before turning final into CDG. Notable sights include: Seine River (meandering through the frame), Île-de-France forests and farmland (patchwork of green and tan fields), Paris urban area (dense grey-white grid visible to the south), Marne River (tributary visible northeast of Paris).

The flight from Ben Gurion (TLV) to Charles De Gaulle (CDG) takes Approximately 4 hours 15 minutes.

The flight path crosses the eastern Mediterranean, passing over Cyprus (visible as a large island roughly 2 hours into flight), then continues northwest over Greece and the Balkans. The Taurus Mountains in southern Turkey are visible to the north during the eastern portion of the flight. The Peloponnese and Greek mainland appear as the aircraft crosses into European airspace. The Alps form a distant northern horizon feature during the final 90 minutes of flight as the aircraft descends toward Paris.
