BGY โ FUE
Which side of the plane to sit from Il Caravaggio International Airport (Bergamo) to Fuerteventura Airport (Fuerteventura)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers a more scenic journey, featuring the glamorous French Riviera and the diverse Spanish coastline before the final approach over the neighboring island of Lanzarote.
Ligurian Coast
The rugged cliffs and colorful towns of the Italian Riviera shortly after takeoff.
Cรดte d'Azur
Glittering views of Monaco, Nice, and the yachts in the French Mediterranean.
Barcelona Coastline
Clear views of the Catalan capital and its famous urban grid and beaches.
Costa Blanca
The white sand beaches and the iconic Peรฑรณn de Ifach in Calpe.
Lanzarote
Stunning aerial views of the volcanic Timanfaya National Park just before landing.
The right side is superior for morning departures to keep the sun behind the plane for photography. Look out for the city of Barcelona roughly 1 hour into the flight. During the descent, you will often fly parallel to Lanzarote, offering world-class volcanic scenery.
Mediterranean Expanses
Vast views of the Ligurian and Mediterranean seas with deep turquoise hues.
Balearic Archipelago
Distant views of Mallorca and Ibiza rising from the sea on clear days.
Castilla-La Mancha
The arid, red-earth plains and windmills of central Spain.
Strait of Gibraltar
Possible distant views of the meeting point between Europe and Africa.
Southern Fuerteventura
A view of the volcanic plains and the Jandia peninsula during the final descent.
Choose the left side for afternoon flights to avoid direct sunlight and enjoy the golden hour over the Atlantic. This side is better for observing the stark desert landscapes of central Spain as you cross the mainland.
