AGPTLS

Which side of the plane to sit from Málaga Airport (Malaga) to Toulouse-Blagnac Airport (Toulouse)?

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side offers an unparalleled view of the Sierra Nevada peaks shortly after takeoff and a stunning panorama of the Pyrenees during the border crossing.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

Sierra Nevada

Breathtaking views of the snow-capped Mulhacén and Veleta peaks immediately after departure.

🏜️

Aragon Steppes

The dry, colorful, and unique landscapes of the Monegros and Ebro basin.

💧

Ebro River

A striking view of Spain's most powerful river carving through the northern plains.

🏔️

Maladeta Massif

Home to Aneto, the highest peak in the Pyrenees, visible as a jagged wall of rock and ice.

🏭

Airbus Assembly

Near TLS airport, you can often see the massive hangers where A350 and A380 aircraft were built.

Best for morning departures to catch the sunrise over the Sierra Nevada. Ensure you have a window seat clear of the wing to fully appreciate the Pyrenees mountain chain, which dominates the horizon for the final 20 minutes of flight. Look out for the 'Pink City' architecture of Toulouse just before touchdown.

🌊

Costa del Sol

Scenic views of the western Mediterranean coastline and the port of Malaga during initial climb.

🏰

Serranía de Ronda

The dramatic limestone peaks and whitewashed villages of western Andalusia.

🏙️

Madrid Skyline

Distal views of the skyscrapers and urban sprawl of the Spanish capital at cruising altitude.

🏔️

Ordesa National Park

Spectacular limestone cliffs and high peaks of the central Pyrenees as you enter French airspace.

⛵

Canal du Midi

Spot the historic tree-lined waterway winding through the French countryside during descent.

Choose the left side for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. This side is better for spotting the unique rock formations of the Ordesa Valley and the lush plains of southern France. Watch for the winding Garonne river as the plane lines up for the Toulouse approach.
