BRU โ MAH
Which side of the plane to sit from Brussels Airport (Brussels) to Menorca Airport (Menorca)?
Right Side of the Plane
While both sides offer stunning views of France, the Right Side provides a superior angle of the snow-capped Pyrenees peaks and the dramatic Costa Brava coastline before descending into Menorca.
Parisian Outskirts
On clear days, catch the urban sprawl of the รle-de-France region and the distant silhouette of Paris.
Loire Valley
The 'Garden of France' featuring wide riverbeds and the faint outlines of historic chateaus.
The Pyrenees
A breathtaking crossing of the high mountain range separating France and Spain, often snow-capped.
Costa Brava
The rugged, rocky coastline of Catalonia with its deep blue waters and hidden sandy coves.
Menorca North Coast
Views of the untouched northern beaches like Cavalleria and the lighthouse before touchdown.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to keep the sun behind you. This side offers the best vantage point for the Pyrenees crossing, which is the scenic highlight of the route. Watch for the change from the green French countryside to the arid, reddish tones of the Spanish coast.
Wallonia Landscapes
The lush, rolling hills and dense forests of southern Belgium shortly after takeoff.
Rhone Valley
Aerial views of the winding Rhone river and the famous vineyards of the Burgundy and Beaujolais regions.
Massif Central
Distant views of the ancient volcanic peaks and plateaus in south-central France.
Gulf of Lion
The sweeping curve of the French Mediterranean coastline as the flight leaves mainland Europe.
Port of Mahรณn
An incredible view of one of the world's largest natural harbors during the final approach.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct glare from the sun. The left side is particularly rewarding during the final approach if the aircraft lands on Runway 19, as it provides a front-row seat to the historic harbor of Mahรณn and the city's white-washed architecture.
