Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior vantage point for spotting the Atlantic coastline during the initial ascent and provides potential views of the capital city, Rabat, and its iconic river mouth as the plane heads northeast.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🌊

Atlantic Coastline

Dramatic views of the Moroccan coast stretching toward Mohammedia and Kenitra shortly after departure from Casablanca.

🏛️

Rabat & Salé

A clear perspective of the Bou Regreg river valley, the Hassan Tower, and the modern Grand Theatre architecture on a clear day.

🌾

Gharb Basin

The fertile green agricultural plains of the northwest, dotted with small rural settlements and irrigation networks.

⛰️

Northern Rif Mountains

In the distance to the north, the blue-tinged ridges of the Rif mountain range provide a scenic horizon line.

Sit toward the front of the aircraft to avoid wing obstruction. Choose an afternoon flight for the best lighting as the sun illuminates the coastline and cityscapes without creating a direct glare on your window.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🚜

Chaouia Plains

Expansive views of Morocco's breadbasket, featuring a patchwork of golden and green fields typical of the interior.

💧

Oued Mellah Reservoir

The reflective blue waters of the inland dams and reservoirs that serve the Casablanca-Settat region.

🏔️

Middle Atlas Foothills

Rugged limestone formations and the rising elevation of the Atlas foothills as you approach the Fes-Meknes region.

🏺

Saïss Plain

The final descent offers views of the vast olive groves and ancient agricultural lands surrounding the city of Fes.

The right side is ideal for morning flights when the sun is higher in the sky, providing soft light over the inland mountain ranges. Watch for the dramatic change in terrain from flat plains to rugged hills during the final 15 minutes of the flight.
