Which side of the plane to sit from Alicante International Airport (Alicante) to Domodedovo International Airport (Moscow)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior visual experience, primarily due to a breathtaking passage along the northern edge of the Alps and views of iconic Central European cities.

The Swiss Alps
The absolute highlight of the trip, featuring jagged, snow-capped peaks and glaciers extending toward the horizon.
Lake Geneva
The distinct crescent shape of Western Europe's largest lake, often reflecting the surrounding mountains.
Prague
Views of the 'City of a Hundred Spires' and the winding Vltava River as the plane traverses the Czech Republic.
Bialowieza Forest
Vast, primeval woodland stretches across the border of Poland and Belarus, appearing as a deep green carpet.
Moscow Approach
The descent into Domodedovo offers views of the vast Russian plains and the sprawling residential suburbs of Moscow.
The Alps are best viewed during morning flights when the sun illuminates the southern slopes. Keep your camera ready about 60-90 minutes into the flight for the mountain transit. For the best photography of Lake Geneva, a window seat slightly forward of the wing is recommended to avoid heat haze from the engines.

Costa Brava
Dramatic views of the rugged Spanish coastline and the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean shortly after takeoff.
Barcelona Urban Grid
The unique octagonal blocks of the Eixample district are clearly visible if the flight path follows the coastline north.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic peaks and deep valleys of south-central France provide a textured landscape transition.
Warsaw Skyline
As the flight crosses Poland, look for the Vistula River and the contrasting architecture of the Polish capital.
To capture the Barcelona grid, use a polarized lens to cut through coastal haze. During winter flights, the Massif Central often features beautiful snow-dusted craters. Sit behind the wing to ensure the engine doesn't obstruct the ground view during the initial climb out of Alicante.
