Which side of the plane to sit from Barcelona International Airport (Barcelona) to Vilnius International Airport (Vilnius)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior scenic experience, featuring the stunning Mediterranean coastline of the Costa Brava, distant but majestic views of the Alps, and a better perspective of the approach into Vilnius.
Costa Brava
A spectacular view of the Mediterranean coastline and the rugged 'Wild Coast' of Catalonia shortly after takeoff.
French Riviera
Distant views of the glamorous Cote d'Azur and the Gulf of Lion.
The Alps
The flight path typically provides a stunning panorama of the snow-capped Swiss and Austrian Alps to the south.
Tatra Mountains
Jagged peaks on the border of Poland and Slovakia visible in the distance during the latter half of the flight.
Lithuanian Lakelands
The lush green forests and numerous small lakes characteristic of the Baltic landscape during descent.
The right side is highly recommended for the Alpine panorama. For the best photography of the Mediterranean coast, ensure you have a window seat away from the wing. During sunset flights, the right side will capture the warm golden hour light reflecting off the clouds and landscape.
The Pyrenees
Aerial views of the rugged mountain range separating the Iberian Peninsula from the rest of Europe.
Massif Central
The volcanic landscape and rolling hills of South-Central France's highland region.
Southern Germany
A view of the dense forests and structured agricultural patterns of Bavaria.
Prague Region
Potential distant sightings of the Czech capital and its surrounding historical towns.
Mazovian Lowland
The expansive flatlands and winding rivers of central Poland as you head northeast.
Sit on the left if you prefer looking at the interior landmasses of Europe. This side is better during afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun, which will be mainly to the south and west during this transit.
