Landes Forest
One of Europe's largest maritime pine forests, stretching south from Bordeaux in a vast green carpet.
Western Pyrenees
Dramatic views of the mountain range that forms the natural border between France and Spain.

A high-altitude landscape dotted with historic Spanish towns and golden wheat fields.
Sierra Morena
The rugged, dark mountain range that marks the northern boundary of the Andalusia region.
Seville Skyline

Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind the aircraft, ensuring better visibility and photo opportunities. Watch for the sharp transition from the green forests of Aquitaine to the arid landscapes of central Spain about 30 minutes into the flight. If landing on Runway 27, the left side provides an unbeatable view of the city's historic core.
