Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers superior views of the dramatic Pyrenees crossing and the spectacular snow-capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada mountains during the final descent into Andalusia.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

The English Channel

Clear views of the crossing from the southern UK coast toward the French mainland.

🏔️

The Pyrenees

A stunning transit over the jagged peaks that form the natural border between France and Spain.

🏙️

Central Spanish Plateaus

The high-altitude Meseta Central, featuring ancient towns and the distant sprawl of the Madrid region.

🏔️

Sierra Nevada

Dramatic views of mainland Spain's highest peaks, often snow-covered even in late spring.

🏖️

Mediterranean Coastline

As the plane turns for arrival, you get a sweeping view of the turquoise Alboran Sea.

Choose a seat behind the wing to avoid engine glare. For the most dramatic lighting on the Sierra Nevada mountains, book a morning flight when the sun illuminates the eastern faces of the peaks. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing for the best mountain shots.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
⚓

Bay of Biscay

Views of the vast Atlantic horizon and the rugged coastline of Western France.

⛰️

Picos de Europa

Distant views of the limestone massifs in Northern Spain if the flight path is westerly.

🫒

Andalusian Olive Groves

The iconic 'sea of olives' creating geometric patterns across the red-earth landscape.

🛳️

Malaga Port

A direct look at the bustling harbor and the historic city center during the final approach.

The right side is perfect for evening flights to witness the sunset over the Atlantic. On the final approach into AGP, if the wind is from the south, you will likely see the Guadalhorce Valley and the city's residential districts more clearly from this side.
