The Bristol Channel
Panoramic views of the North Somerset coast and the distant silhouette of Exmoor National Park.
Biscay Coastline
Stunning views of the long, sandy beaches of the Landes region and the chic resort town of Biarritz.
Western Pyrenees
Witness where the rugged mountains meet the sea at the corner of the Bay of Biscay.
Es Vedrà
The legendary and mystical limestone rock island is frequently visible on the right side during the standard approach to Runway 24.
The right side is the 'sunset side' for late afternoon flights, offering a golden glow over the Atlantic and Mediterranean. Keep your camera ready as you pass the Spanish coast for the first sight of the Balearic Islands.

Bristol City and Mendips
View the historic city of Bristol and the rolling limestone hills of the Mendips immediately after takeoff.
Loire Valley
Look for the winding Loire river and occasional glimpses of grand chateaus as you cross central France.
Central Pyrenees
Dramatic views of the highest snow-capped peaks of the border between France and Spain.
Ibiza Port
During specific landing patterns, the left side offers views of the luxury yachts in the harbor and Dalt Vila.
Sit on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side is often better for seeing the density of Ibiza's historic town on final approach if the wind is coming from the West.
