The end of the scene shows them debarking in clear morning light at a very scenic airport in the Alps, with huge full color panorama of the snow-capped mountains in warm daylight. There is no snow on the tarmac, but we can see snow on the ground where the planes do not go. We see a full scenery panorama with the plane on the ground, could be a different and smaller plane than the first, as they may have switched planes in Paris.
