Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side of the aircraft offers a superior view of the European coastline, spanning from the cliffs of Portugal and the Brittany peninsula to the scenic mountains of Wales and the iconic Blackpool seafront.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏖️

Costa Teguise

Aerial view of Lanzarote's eastern resorts and the turquoise waters surrounding the Chinijo Archipelago.

🇵🇹

Portuguese Coast

Views of the rugged cliffs and beaches of Portugal as the flight path tracks north along the Iberian Peninsula.

⛵

Brittany Peninsula

The jagged western tip of France is often visible when crossing from the Bay of Biscay toward the English Channel.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Snowdonia Peaks

On clear days, the majestic mountains of North Wales provide a stunning backdrop before the descent begins.

🎡

Blackpool Seafront

A prime view of the Blackpool Tower, the Golden Mile, and the Pleasure Beach as you approach for landing.

The right side is highly recommended for geographic interest. Keep your camera ready during the final 20 minutes of the flight; depending on the wind direction, the approach into BLK often flies directly past the Blackpool Tower. Morning flights offer the best lighting for the UK coastline.

Left Side Highlights
5.8
🌋

Timanfaya Volcanics

Dramatic views of the lunar-like volcanic landscapes of Lanzarote immediately after takeoff.

🌊

Atlantic Vastness

Uninterrupted views of the deep blue Atlantic Ocean and the horizon line for the majority of the cruise.

🇮🇪

Irish Sea Horizon

As the flight nears the UK, the left side catches the distant silhouette of the Irish coastline across the channel.

Choose the left side for evening flights to witness spectacular sunsets over the Atlantic. During takeoff from ACE, you will get a final look at the stark contrast between the white-washed villages and dark volcanic earth of Lanzarote's western coast.
