Which side of the plane to sit from Bristol Airport (Bristol) to Menorca Airport (Menorca)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the English Jurassic Coast, the Atlantic coastline of France including the Gironde Estuary, and the stunning turquoise coves of southern Menorca during the approach.
Jurassic Coast
Dramatic white cliffs and sandy beaches of the Dorset and Devon shoreline.
Bordeaux Vineyards
Intricate geometric patterns of the world-famous French wine region.
Central Pyrenees
Breathtaking views of the highest mountain peaks in the range.
Bay of Biscay
The transition from the French Atlantic coast into the Mediterranean basin.
Southern Calas
Bird's-eye view of Menorca's famous turquoise coves like Cala Galdana.
Choose the right side for morning flights for the best lighting. This side frequently captures the stunning contrast between the white sand and blue water of the southern beaches as you circle Mahon for landing.
English Channel
Expansive views of the busy shipping lanes between the UK and France.
Loire Valley
The winding path of France's longest river dotted with historic towns.
Massif Central
Ancient volcanic peaks and rugged plateaus of south-central France.
Eastern Pyrenees
Sharp mountain ridges and snow-capped peaks near the Mediterranean border.
Fornells Bay
A deep natural harbor on Menorca's north coast visible during the descent.
The left side is preferable for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. It provides a great angle for seeing the rugged, rocky northern coastline of Menorca if the flight path approaches from the north.
