Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior mix of diverse European landscapes, including the transition between continents at Gibraltar and the stunning island approach into Stockholm.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌍

Strait of Gibraltar

The narrow gap where Africa and Europe almost meet, with views of the Rock of Gibraltar and Ceuta.

πŸ™οΈ

Madrid Metropolitan Area

A high-altitude view of the sprawling Spanish capital and the surrounding arid Meseta plateau.

πŸ”οΈ

Pyrenees Peaks

The snow-capped border between Spain and France, featuring some of the highest summits in Western Europe.

🏰

Loire Valley

The 'Garden of France,' famous for its winding river and historic Renaissance chateaus scattered across the landscape.

πŸŒ‰

Oresund Bridge

The massive bridge and tunnel complex connecting Copenhagen, Denmark with MalmΓΆ, Sweden.

🏝️

Stockholm Archipelago

A breathtaking final descent over a maze of 30,000 islands, islets, and rocks leading into Arlanda.

The right side is essential for the arrival phase. If the aircraft approaches Arlanda from the south (common for many routes), you will get an iconic view of the Stockholm archipelago. In summer, the late sunset at these northern latitudes provides incredible lighting for the entire European crossing.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🌊

Atlantic Horizon

Panoramic views of the Moroccan coastline and the deep blue expanse of the North Atlantic Ocean.

πŸ–οΈ

Costa de la Luz

The sandy beaches and marshes of the southwestern Spanish coast near Huelva and Cadiz.

Bay of Biscay

Dramatic maritime views as the flight crosses from Spain into the western edge of France.

Brittany Peninsula

The rugged, indented coastline of western France with its numerous lighthouses and rocky inlets.

πŸ›Ά

Dutch Polders

Intricate patterns of reclaimed land, canals, and windmills visible along the Netherlands' coastline.

🌲

Scanian Plains

The patchwork of fertile farmland and dense forests of southern Sweden as you enter Nordic airspace.

The left side is ideal for morning departures from Casablanca to keep the sun behind the plane, avoiding harsh glare. This side provides the best view of the sun setting over the North Sea on late afternoon flights during the winter months.
