AGPFMM

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

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the Mediterranean coastline, a distant but majestic panorama of the Alps, and a spectacular approach over Lake Constance.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
⛰️

Sierra Nevada

Distant views of the highest peaks in mainland Spain, often snow-capped, shortly after departure.

🌊

Gulf of Lion

Stunning vistas of the French Mediterranean coast, including the areas near Montpellier and Marseille.

🏔️

Alpine Panorama

A long-distance, breathtaking view of the French and Swiss Alps rising on the horizon.

💧

Lake Constance (Bodensee)

One of Europe's largest lakes, marking the junction of Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.

🥨

Allgäu Foothills

Lush green Bavarian meadows and traditional villages during the descent into Memmingen.

The right side is the clear winner for the approach. About 20 minutes before landing, keep a close watch for Lake Constance (Bodensee); if the flight approaches from the south, you'll get a perfect view. On evening flights, the sunset over the Alps provides a spectacular orange glow on this side.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏖️

Costa del Sol

Immediate views of Málaga's rugged coastline and the Sierra de Mijas shortly after takeoff.

🏜️

Spanish Meseta

The high plateau of central Spain, featuring arid landscapes and red earth textures.

🏔️

The Pyrenees

A dramatic crossing over the snow-capped border between Spain and France.

🍇

French Countryside

Views of the rolling hills and vineyards of central and eastern France.

🌲

Black Forest

Dense, dark green woodland visible as the flight enters German airspace near the border.

Sit on the left if you prefer the rugged mountainous terrain of the Pyrenees and the interior of France. This side is typically better for morning flights as the sun will be behind the aircraft, reducing glare on the window.
