BCN โ HAJ
Which side of the plane to sit from Barcelona International Airport (Barcelona) to Hannover Airport (Hannover)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior panorama featuring the Mediterranean coastline upon departure, distant views of the Alps throughout the mid-flight, and a better angle of the German Harz mountains during the descent.
Costa Brava
Stunning views of the rugged Catalan coastline and turquoise Mediterranean waters.
Alpine Panorama
Distant but clear views of the Swiss and French Alps, including Mont Blanc on clear days.
Lyon Cityscape
The confluence of the Rhรดne and Saรดne rivers in the heart of the city.
Frankfurt Skyline
The distinctive 'Mainhattan' skyscrapers visible as you traverse central Germany.
Harz Mountains
The northernmost mountain range in Germany, featuring the Brocken peak.
Sit behind the wing for the best view of the Barcelona city grid during the initial climbing turn. In the afternoon, this side offers spectacular sunset views over the European continent. Keep your eyes eastward mid-flight to spot the distant Alpine peaks over the horizon.
Montserrat Massif
Distinctive jagged mountain peaks visible shortly after takeoff from Barcelona.
Central Pyrenees
High-altitude views of the snow-capped border between Spain and France.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic plateaus of south-central France.
Rhine River
The shimmering silver thread of the Rhine as the flight enters German airspace.
Weser Uplands
Rolling green hills and dense forests typical of the Lower Saxony region.
Choose this side for morning flights to minimize direct sun glare. Watch for the Pyrenees approximately 15-20 minutes after takeoff. This side provides a great view of the wing flaps during the final approach into Hannover's Runway 09L/27R.
