AGPHAJ

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

Our Recommendation
8.4

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the dramatic Sierra Nevada mountains shortly after takeoff, followed by a spectacular crossing of the Pyrenees and the volcanic landscapes of Central France.

Right Side Highlights
8.4
🏔️

Sierra Nevada Peaks

Early flight views of the highest peaks in mainland Spain, often snow-capped until late spring.

🏜️

Castile-La Mancha

The vast, arid plains of central Spain, known for their unique red soil and agricultural grids.

🏔️

Pyrenees Mountains

The most dramatic part of the flight, featuring jagged peaks and deep valleys at the Franco-Spanish border.

🌋

Massif Central

The ancient volcanic plateau of central France, offering a rugged and unique terrain perspective.

🏰

Loire Valley

The winding Loire river and glimpses of historic chateaus scattered across the lush French countryside.

🗼

Paris Distance View

On clear days, the distant sprawl of the French capital may be visible on the horizon.

Sit on the right for morning flights to enjoy the best illumination of the Pyrenees. Keep your camera ready approximately 50-60 minutes into the flight for the mountain crossing.

🏖️

Costa del Sol

Immediate views of the Mediterranean coastline and Malaga city skyline upon departure.

🏙️

Madrid Metropolitan Area

A distant but expansive view of the Spanish capital's skyline if the flight path tracks slightly west.

🌊

Bay of Biscay

Panoramic views of the rugged coastline of northern Spain and the Atlantic ocean entry into France.

🍇

Bordeaux Vineyards

The geometric patterns of the world-famous French wine regions near the Garonne river.

🏭

The Ruhr Valley

Choose a seat in front of the wing to capture unobstructed views of the Malaga coast. This side is better for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the setting sun over the Atlantic.
