Which side of the plane to sit from Málaga Airport (Malaga) to Palma De Mallorca Airport (Palma de Mallorca)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side of the aircraft offers a spectacular combination of the Andalusian coastline, the snow-capped Sierra Nevada mountains, and the iconic city view of Palma de Mallorca during the final approach.
Málaga City Skyline
A stunning aerial view of the Málaga Port, the Cathedral, and the Alcazaba fortress immediately after takeoff.
Sierra Nevada Peaks
Panoramic views of the highest peaks in mainland Spain, often covered in snow during winter and spring months.
Cabo de Gata-Níjar
The rugged, volcanic landscape of this natural park in Almería stands out with its turquoise waters and arid terrain.
Bay of Palma
As the plane descends, enjoy a sweeping view of the Mediterranean coastline and the luxury yachts in the bay.
Palma Cathedral (La Seu)
The massive Gothic cathedral is a landmark highlight visible on the left when the flight approaches from the west.
For the most scenic experience, book a window seat on the left. On morning flights, the sun is behind you, illuminating the Spanish coast and Sierra Nevada perfectly. If the flight lands toward the east (Runway 06), you will have the best possible view of the Palma Cathedral and the city's historic center just minutes before touchdown.
Alboran Sea
Vast blue expanses with frequent sightings of cargo ships and ferries crossing between Europe and Africa.
North African Horizon
On exceptionally clear days, the distant Rif Mountains of Morocco can be spotted across the Mediterranean.
Cabrera Archipelago
A bird's-eye view of the protected maritime-terrestrial national park located off the southern coast of Mallorca.
Mallorca's South Coast
Views of the rocky coves (calas) and white sandy beaches like Es Trenc during the final descent phase.
Mediterranean Sunset
On evening flights, the right side provides a front-row seat to the sun setting over the open sea.
The right side is ideal for passengers who prefer the tranquility of the open sea and want to avoid direct sunlight on morning departures. Look out for the Cabrera islands about 15 minutes before landing. If you are flying during sunset, this side offers beautiful golden hour colors reflecting off the water, though you miss the main architectural landmarks of Palma.
