Which side of the plane to sit from EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg Airport (Mulhouse) to Fuerteventura Airport (Fuerteventura)?
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.
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.
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.
