ALCVXO

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior sequence of landmarks, including the stunning Mediterranean coastline, the high Pyrenees, and a better angle for the Alpine horizon and the approach into Scandinavia.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏝️

Costa Blanca

Crystal-clear Mediterranean waters and white sandy beaches immediately after takeoff.

🏔️

Pyrenees Range

The dramatic, snow-capped peaks forming the natural border between Spain and France.

❄️

Alpine Horizon

On clear days, the distant but majestic skyline of the Swiss and French Alps is visible.

🌉

Oresund Region

The iconic bridge connecting Denmark and Sweden and the busy shipping lanes of the Baltic.

🌲

Småland Lakelands

The dense pine forests and thousands of shimmering lakes characteristic of southern Sweden.

Sit on the right for the best coastal views at departure. During the middle of the flight, look far to the east to spot the Alps. As you approach Växjö, the right side typically provides a better view of the fragmented coastline and the transition into the deep Swedish forests. Early morning or late afternoon flights provide the best lighting for photography on this side.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Iberian System

Rugged mountains and deep valleys of the Aragon region in eastern Spain.

🌳

Massif Central

The ancient volcanic plateaus and lush green hills of south-central France.

🛶

Low Countries

Intricate networks of canals, polders, and fields across the Netherlands and Belgium.

🎡

Danish Hinterland

The flat, patchwork agricultural landscapes of the Jutland peninsula.

This side is ideal for avoiding direct sunlight during midday flights heading north. It offers a more consistent view of the rural European heartland and the dramatic change from the arid Spanish interior to the verdant French countryside.
