Which side of the plane to sit from Alicante International Airport (Alicante) to Kaunas International Airport (Kaunas)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior sequence of landmarks, starting with the stunning Spanish coastline, followed by the volcanic landscapes of France and the industrial heart of the Rhine valley.
Spanish Levant
Dramatic views of the Costa Blanca and the city of Valencia as the plane climbs and turns north.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic plateaus and rugged terrain of south-central France provide a textured landscape.
Loire Valley
Visible as the flight crosses central France, featuring the winding Loire river and historic chateaus.
Rhine-Ruhr Region
A clear view of the winding Rhine river and the densely populated urban clusters of Western Germany.
Berlin Skyline
On clear days, the German capital and its surrounding lakes are visible to the northwest before entering Polish airspace.
Sit on the left (typically seat A) to avoid the direct sun glare during morning flights. This side provides the best angle for the Spanish coastline shortly after departure. Keep your camera ready as you cross the Rhine river near the flight's midpoint.
Balearic Islands
If the flight path stays slightly offshore, you will see Ibiza and Mallorca rising from the Mediterranean.
The Alps
Breathtaking but distant views of the snow-capped Alpine peaks shimmering on the eastern horizon.
Black Forest
The dense canopy of the Schwarzwald in Southwest Germany creates a dark green patchwork below.
Vistula River Basin
Expansive views of the agricultural heartlands of Poland as you approach the Lithuanian border.
The right side (seat F) is ideal for sunset flights, offering warm light over the European plains. It is the better side if you want to catch a glimpse of the Alps, though they will be quite far away on the horizon.
