Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the Iberian coastline, the dramatic entry into British airspace over Cornwall, and the mountainous landscape of Wales before the final approach over the Mersey.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌋

Timanfaya Volcanics

Stunning aerial views of Lanzarote's lunar-like volcanic craters and lava fields immediately after takeoff.

🇵🇹

Portuguese Coast

Distant but visible outlines of the Lisbon Peninsula and the rugged cliffs of central Portugal.

🏰

Cornish Cliffs

Entry into UK airspace often provides views of Land's End and the turquoise waters surrounding the Scilly Isles.

⛰️

Snowdonia Peaks

The dramatic mountains of North Wales, including Snowdon, are visible during the descent into the northwest.

🚢

Mersey Estuary

A clear view of the Runcorn bridges and the industrial heritage of the River Mersey on final approach.

For the best experience, sit on the right side to catch the Lanzarote coastline departure. In the morning, the sun will be on the right, so consider window shades; however, the land-based views of Cornwall and Wales make it worthwhile. Keep your camera ready about 25 minutes before landing for the Snowdonia mountain range.

Left Side Highlights
6.2
🌊

Atlantic Expanse

Uninterrupted views of the deep blue Atlantic Ocean during the mid-flight cruise phase.

🌅

Sunset Horizon

On evening flights, this side provides a front-row seat to spectacular sunsets over the sea.

🇮🇪

Irish Sea Vista

Clear views across the water toward the eastern coast of Ireland during the northern stage of the flight.

Choose the left side for evening departures to witness the sunset over the Atlantic. It is also the quieter side for those who prefer the meditative quality of the open ocean rather than tracking landmarks.
