Which side of the plane to sit from Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport (Bologna) to Tenerife South Airport (Tenerife)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior visual journey, featuring the Balearic Islands, the iconic Strait of Gibraltar, and a dramatic aerial view of Mount Teide during the approach to Tenerife.
Balearic Archipelago
Incredible turquoise water views as the flight passes near Mallorca, Menorca, and Ibiza.
Strait of Gibraltar
The historic maritime gateway where the European and African continents almost meet.
Casablanca Coast
Follow the western Moroccan shoreline, seeing the urban sprawl of Casablanca and Rabat against the Atlantic.
Mount Teide
Spain's highest peak and the volcanic heart of Tenerife, usually visible on the right during the arrival circuit.
Prioritize the right side for the 'money shot' of Mount Teide. For afternoon flights, this side offers spectacular views of the sun setting over the Atlantic Ocean as you reach the Canary Islands.
Northern Apennines
Dramatic views of the rugged mountain ridges immediately after departing from Bologna.
Sardinian Coastline
Distant glimpses of the wild, rocky shores of northern Sardinia across the Tyrrhenian Sea.
High Atlas Mountains
The snow-capped peaks of Morocco provide a stunning contrast to the Saharan landscape below.
Gran Canaria
Clear views of the neighboring circular island during the final descent into Tenerife South.
The left side is ideal for morning departures to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. It provides the best perspective of the North African interior and the diverse topography of the Moroccan landscape.
