Which side of the plane to sit from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (Amsterdam) to Francisco de Sá Carneiro Airport (Porto)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior coastal perspective, featuring the Dutch engineering marvels and a breathtaking approach over the Atlantic Ocean into Porto.
Zeeland Delta
The complex network of dams and islands along the Dutch coast.
Biscay Coastline
The transition from the sandy French beaches to the rocky Bay of Biscay.
Atlantic Horizon
Uninterrupted views of the deep blue Atlantic Ocean and distant ships.
Porto Seafront
A dramatic view of the Atlantic meeting the Douro River mouth during landing.
Book an evening flight to witness a spectacular sunset over the Atlantic. During landing, the aircraft often approaches from the sea, giving right-side passengers a front-row seat to the coastline.
Belgian Cities
Views of Antwerp and Brussels urban sprawl shortly after takeoff.
Loire Valley
Look for the silver threads of the Loire and Cher rivers in central France.
Picos de Europa
Spectacular rugged limestone mountains visible as you cross northern Spain.
Douro Valley
On the final approach, the terraced vineyards of the world-famous wine region appear.
For the best view of the Picos de Europa, ensure clear weather over northern Spain. Early morning flights provide the softest light for photographing the French countryside.
