AGPAAR

Which side of the plane to sit from Málaga Airport (Malaga) to Aarhus Airport (Aarhus)?

Our Recommendation

Right Side Highlights
8.7
🏔️

Sierra Nevada

The highest peaks of mainland Spain, often snow-covered, providing a stunning backdrop right after departure.

🌋

Massif Central

Ancient volcanic landscapes and deep valleys of south-central France.

🚢

Rhine-Meuse-Scheldt Delta

A complex network of waterways and one of the world's busiest shipping lanes near the Benelux region.

⚓

Port of Hamburg

Europe's third-largest port and the winding Elbe River as the flight nears the Danish border.

🌉

Great Belt Bridge

🌊

Aarhus Bay

Beautiful coastal views of the Mols Bjerge National Park and the Kalø Vig during the approach to Aarhus Airport.

The right side is ideal for morning flights to see the sunrise over the Mediterranean and the Spanish mountains. Ensure you are looking out during the last 20 minutes of the flight for spectacular views of the Danish islands and the Jutland peninsula.

Left Side Highlights
7.9
🌊

Costa del Sol

Aerial views of the Málaga coastline and the Mediterranean Sea during the initial climb.

🏔️
