Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior visual experience, featuring a close-up approach past Lanzarote's volcanic terrain and better views of the North African coastline before landing.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🌋

Chaine des Puys

The iconic volcanic craters and domes of the Auvergne region in central France.

🏔️

Central Pyrenees

Dramatic views of high-altitude peaks and glacial valleys as you cross into Spain.

🏙️

Madrid Outskirts

Expansive views of the Spanish capital and the arid landscapes of the Meseta Central.

🌊

Moroccan Atlantic Coast

The rugged shoreline of North Africa, often visible as the plane tracks south toward the islands.

🏝️

Lanzarote Approach

Stunning views of the Timanfaya National Park and the neighboring island of Lanzarote just before landing.

Choose a seat behind the wing to capture the descent past Lanzarote's red volcanic cones. This side is also shielded from the harshest direct sunlight on morning flights, providing better conditions for photography of the Pyrenees.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🍷

Bordeaux Vineyards

Bird's eye view of the famous wine-growing estates in Southwest France.

🏖️

Bay of Biscay

The dramatic meeting point of the French and Spanish Atlantic coastlines.

🏰

Andalusian Countryside

The rolling hills and white-washed villages of southern Spain.

🌅

Atlantic Horizon

Endless ocean vistas which are particularly beautiful during late-afternoon or sunset flights.

The right side is ideal for catching a sunset over the Atlantic if you are on an evening flight. However, be aware that during the day, the sun can be quite strong on this side of the aircraft for the majority of the journey south.
