Which side of the plane to sit from Málaga Airport (Malaga) to Stockholm-Arlanda Airport (Stockholm)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a superior scenic experience, featuring the stunning Mediterranean coastline at departure, distant views of the Alps, and a magnificent final approach over the Baltic Sea and the Stockholm archipelago.
Costa del Sol
Spectacular views of the Malaga coastline and the Mediterranean Sea immediately after takeoff.
The Alps
On clear days, the distant eastern horizon reveals the massive, white-peaked silhouette of the European Alps.
Baltic Coastline
The transition from Germany to the Baltic Sea, featuring the islands of Rügen and the Danish coastline.
Stockholm Archipelago
An incredible view of some of the 30,000 islands and islets that lead into the Swedish capital.
Stockholm Cityscape
Depending on the wind direction, a panoramic view of the 'Venice of the North' during the final descent.
The right side is essential for the approach into Stockholm; the archipelago view is one of Europe's best. In winter, the low sun can be bright, so bring sunglasses. For the best view of the archipelago, ensure you are seated behind the wing to see the islands scattered across the Baltic.
The Pyrenees
Dramatic views of the jagged, often snow-capped peaks that form the natural border between Spain and France.
Loire Valley
The lush green landscape of central France, dotted with historic chateaux and the winding Loire River.
Port of Rotterdam
A bird's-eye view of Europe's largest seaport and the complex canal systems of the Netherlands.
Lake Vättern
The deep blue expanse of Sweden's second-largest lake as you traverse the Scandinavian interior.
Swedish Forests
Endless stretches of dense coniferous forests and small lakes characteristic of the Nordic landscape.
Sit on the left for better lighting during afternoon flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. Watch for the Pyrenees roughly 45-60 minutes into the flight. This side is ideal for spotting the transition from the dry Iberian plateau to the verdant plains of Northern Europe.
