Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior vantage point for the highest peaks of the Sierra Nevada, the most dramatic central Pyrenees ridges, and the iconic Black Forest landscape during the approach to Baden-Baden.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
❄️

Sierra Nevada

Magnificent views of the snow-capped Mulhacén, the highest peak in mainland Spain, shortly after departure.

🏔️

Central Pyrenees

The most spectacular high-altitude section of the range, including views of the Aneto glacier.

🌋

Massif Central

The ancient volcanic landscape of central France, featuring the distinctive 'puys' or volcanic cones.

💧

Rhône River Valley

The wide, shimmering path of the Rhône as the flight bypasses the city of Lyon to the east.

🏔️

Distant Alps

On clear days, the white-capped Swiss and French Alps are visible on the far eastern horizon.

🌲

The Black Forest

The dense, evergreen canopy of the Schwarzwald provides a stunning backdrop during the final approach to FKB.

Morning flights on the right side are spectacular as the rising sun illuminates the Pyrenees and the Alps. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing for the best views of the dense Black Forest ridges surrounding the airport.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🌊

Costa del Sol

Panoramic views of the Alboran Sea and the Málaga coastline during the initial climb out of AGP.

🏜️

Spanish Meseta

The arid, high-altitude plateau of central Spain, featuring deep canyons and ocher-colored earth.

⛰️

Western Pyrenees

Rugged limestone peaks and green valleys marking the transition from Spain into French territory.

🏙️

Bordeaux Region

In the distance, the famous wine-growing regions of southwest France and the Garonne river basin.

🌲

Vosges Mountains

Rounded, forested peaks in Eastern France visible shortly before the descent into the Rhine Valley.

Choose the left side for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. It provides excellent views of the Mediterranean coastline immediately after takeoff and a clear view of the Rhine River's path as you approach the German border.
