CAG → GRO
Which side of the plane to sit from Cagliari Elmas Airport (Cagliari) to Girona Airport (Gerona)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Sardinian coastline upon departure, followed by a dramatic approach over the Costa Brava with the Pyrenees mountains visible on the horizon.
Sardinian West Coast
Stunning views of the Gulf of Oristano and the rugged cliffs of western Sardinia shortly after takeoff.
Costa Brava
Aerial perspective of the famous 'Rugged Coast' with its turquoise coves and rocky inlets near Palamos.
Pyrenees Mountains
Panoramic views of the snow-capped Pyrenees peaks marking the border between Spain and France.
Girona Cathedral
Possible views of the iconic Onyar River and the medieval old town of Girona during the final approach.
Sit on the right for the best photographic opportunities of the Pyrenees. Morning flights provide the best lighting for the Costa Brava coastline. Keep your camera ready immediately after departure from CAG for the Sardinian shore.
Mediterranean Expanse
Deep blue views of the Balearic Sea during the cruise phase of the flight.
Menorca Silhouette
Distant views of the northern coast of Menorca depending on the specific flight corridor.
Barcelona Coastline
On clear days, the distant skyline of Barcelona can be seen to the southwest during the descent.
Choose the left side for afternoon flights to enjoy the reflection of the sun on the Mediterranean. It offers a more peaceful, sea-centric view, but lacks the dramatic mountain backdrops found on the opposite side.
