A stunning aerial view of the Eixample district's octagonal blocks and the Sagrada Familia.
Pic d'Aneto
The highest point of the Pyrenees, often snow-capped even in early summer.
Loire Valley
The winding Loire River and the distant silhouettes of historic French chateaux.
Greater Paris
On exceptionally clear days, the distant urban sprawl of the French capital is visible to the east.
The Midlands
The industrial heritage and sprawling urban centers of central England's heartland.
Liverpool Waterfront
A perfect view of the Anglican Cathedral and the historic Royal Liver Building on final approach.
The right side is superior for morning flights to avoid the glare of the southern sun. On departure from BCN, if the plane takes off on Runway 24L, the right side provides the most iconic view of the city center. On arrival at LPL, this side usually faces the city skyline during the final approach to Runway 27.
