BVA → AGP
Which side of the plane to sit from Paris Beauvais Tillé Airport (Beauvais) to Málaga Airport (Malaga)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers the most dramatic views of the high Pyrenees peaks and a spectacular perspective of the Sierra Nevada mountains during the descent into Andalusia.
Parisian Horizon
On a clear day, look south shortly after takeoff to see the distant skyline of Paris and the Eiffel Tower.
Loire Valley
View the winding Loire River and the dense clusters of historical chateaux throughout central France.
The High Pyrenees
Direct views of the central Pyrenees massif, featuring the highest peaks like Aneto and the Ordesa canyons.
Madrid Metropolitan Area
The plane often passes east of Madrid, offering a clear view of the city's expanding urban sprawl.
Sierra Nevada
As you begin your descent, witness the Mulhacén, the highest peak in mainland Spain, often capped in snow.
Málaga Port
On the final approach, enjoy a bird's-eye view of the Mediterranean harbor and the historic Alcazaba fortress.
Book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Pyrenees and the Spanish landscape perfectly. Sit several rows behind the wing to ensure your view of the mountain peaks is not obstructed during the mid-flight cruise. During winter, the contrast between the white Pyrenees and the brown Spanish plains is particularly striking.
Atlantic Coastline
Occasional views of the Bay of Biscay and the rugged coastline of western France and northern Spain.
Castilian Plains
The vast, arid, and golden-red plateaus of central Spain, characterized by unique geological formations.
Andalusian Olive Groves
Incredible geometric patterns formed by millions of olive trees stretching across the rolling hills of Jaén and Córdoba.
Costa del Sol
During the final banking turn for landing, you can often see the beaches extending toward Marbella.
Serranía de Ronda
Rugged limestone mountains visible to the west as the aircraft aligns with the runway at AGP.
The right side is ideal for late afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over the Iberian Peninsula. If the flight path takes a more westerly route, you may see the mouth of the Tagus River. Keep your camera ready during the final 10 minutes for the geometric patterns of the olive plantations which are a highlight of the Andalusian interior.
