ALC โ EXT
Which side of the plane to sit from Alicante International Airport (Alicante) to Exeter International Airport (Exeter)?
Left Side of the Plane
The Left Side is preferred for its dramatic departure views of the Costa Blanca and the spectacular final approach over the Jurassic Coast and Exmouth.
Costa Blanca Coastline
Breathtaking views of Alicante's urban beaches and the blue Mediterranean immediately following takeoff.
Spanish Meseta
The expansive, high-altitude plateau of central Spain, featuring unique agricultural patterns and arid landscapes.
Brittany Peninsula
The rugged western coastline of France, including the jagged cliffs of the Finistรจre department.
Jurassic Coast
Stunning views of the red sandstone cliffs and the Exe Estuary during the descent into Exeter.
Sit on the left (seats A or B) for the best views of the English coastline upon arrival. As this is a northbound flight, the left side will be shaded from the direct sun during the afternoon, reducing glare for photography. Look out for the white cliffs of the Devon/Dorset border during the descent phase.
Sierra de Aitana
The highest peak in the province of Alicante, visible shortly after departure from ALC.
Madrid Outskirts
Distant views of the Spanish capital's skyscrapers and urban sprawl depending on the specific air corridor.
Channel Islands
On clear days, the islands of Jersey and Guernsey can be seen as emerald gems in the English Channel.
Dartmoor National Park
The wild, rolling hills and granite tors of Devon visible just before the final touchdown at EXT.
The right side (seats E or F) is excellent for spotting the Channel Islands mid-flight. Be aware that on morning flights, the sun will be on this side of the aircraft. Keep an eye out for the distinctive silhouette of Haytor or other granite tors as you cross into the Devon interior on the final approach leg.
