Which side of the plane to sit from Málaga Airport (Malaga) to Geneva Cointrin International Airport (Geneva)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side is superior for this route as it provides a front-row seat to the snow-capped Sierra Nevada shortly after takeoff, the vibrant Mediterranean coastline of Spain and France, and a spectacular approach past Mont Blanc and the high Alps into Geneva.
Sierra Nevada
The highest peaks of mainland Spain, including Mulhacen, visible shortly after departing Malaga.
Mediterranean Coast
Panoramic views of the Spanish Levante and the Gulf of Lion as the plane skims the coastline.
Provence
The beautiful landscapes of southern France, including the Rhone River delta and historic Avignon.
Mont Blanc
On clear days, the highest peak in the Alps is visible to the east during the approach to Geneva.
Lake Geneva
The massive crescent-shaped lake and the city of Geneva, including the Jet d'Eau, during final descent.
This is the 'money side.' For the best experience, book a morning flight when the sun illuminates the Alps from the east. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing for the best views of Mont Blanc and the French Prealps.
Costa del Sol
Immediate views of Malaga’s beaches and the western coastline of Andalusia upon departure.
Castile-La Mancha
The arid, high-altitude plains of central Spain, featuring unique agricultural patterns.
Massif Central
The rugged volcanic plateaus and deep valleys of south-central France as you head north.
Jura Mountains
Dense forests and limestone ridges forming the natural border between France and Switzerland.
Sit forward of the wing to capture the Jura Mountains during the descent. While less scenic than the right, this side avoids direct afternoon sun on northbound flights, making it easier to see the ground without glare.
