AGP → KRK
Which side of the plane to sit from Málaga Airport (Malaga) to Kraków John Paul II International Airport (Krakow)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior visual experience, featuring the snow-capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada shortly after takeoff, followed by panoramic views of the Alps and the jagged Tatra Mountains on the descent into Krakow.
Sierra Nevada
The highest peaks of mainland Spain, often snow-capped, appearing shortly after takeoff from AGP.
Balearic Sea
Expansive views of the turquoise Mediterranean coastline and the Balearic Islands in the distance.
Eastern Pyrenees
Sharp ridges and high-altitude lakes where the mountains meet the Mediterranean coast.
The Alps
Breathtaking views of the Swiss and Austrian Alps, including prominent glaciers and 4,000-meter peaks.
Vienna & Danube
The winding Blue Danube river and the sprawling capital of Austria as the flight crosses Central Europe.
High Tatras
The dramatic, granite peaks of the Tatra Mountains on the border of Slovakia and Poland during descent.
For the best experience, book a window seat away from the wing to fully appreciate the Alps. On morning flights, this side will be brightly lit, perfect for photography. Watch for the Tatra Mountains about 15-20 minutes before landing in Krakow; they are the most dramatic feature of the arrival.
Malaga Cityscape
Bird's-eye view of Malaga's port, the Alcazaba fortress, and the bullring immediately after departure.
Spanish Meseta
The vast, sun-drenched plateau of central Spain with its unique ochre and red earth tones.
Western Pyrenees
Dramatic views of the rugged mountain border between Spain and France as you head north.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic landscapes and rolling green hills of central France's highland region.
Prague & Czechia
Depending on the specific airway, the historic city of Prague and the Vltava River may be visible.
Vistula Valley
The lush, forested landscapes of Southern Poland as the plane begins its final approach.
The left side is ideal for afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over Western Europe. It provides the best view of Malaga city during the initial climb, especially if taking off to the south and banking north.
