Which side of the plane to sit from Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (Copenhagen) to Málaga Airport (Malaga)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior visual experience, featuring the iconic Øresund Bridge at takeoff, the rugged beauty of the Eastern Pyrenees, and a spectacular approach over the snow-capped Sierra Nevada and the Mediterranean coastline.
Øresund Bridge
Immediately after takeoff, view the architectural marvel connecting Copenhagen to Malmö across the blue Baltic waters.
Eastern Pyrenees
Dramatic views of the high mountain border between France and Spain, often capped with snow during winter and spring.
Costa Blanca
As the plane tracks south along the Spanish coast, catch glimpses of turquoise waters and high-rise coastal resorts.
Sierra Nevada Range
Breathtaking views of mainland Spain's highest peaks, including Mulhacén, standing tall just before the descent into Málaga.
Málaga City & Port
A stunning aerial view of the harbor, the Alcazaba fortress, and the bullring as the aircraft aligns for landing.
Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to enjoy the illuminated coastline without the direct glare of the afternoon sun. The Sierra Nevada mountains are particularly impressive from November to May when they are covered in snow. During takeoff from CPH, keep your camera ready for the Øresund Bridge within the first 3 minutes.
Danish Archipelago
Views of the islands of Zealand and Falster and the intricate coastline of southern Denmark.
Ruhr Valley
The dense urban and industrial landscape of western Germany, including cities like Essen and Cologne.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic plateaus and deep valleys of south-central France.
La Mancha Plains
The vast, arid, and colorful agricultural patchwork of the Spanish Meseta, famous for its windmills.
Sierra de las Nieves
Rugged limestone mountains and deep gorges visible during the final descent into the Costa del Sol.
The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to witness the sunset over the Spanish plateau. It provides a better perspective of the vast interior of Spain and the rugged mountain ranges surrounding Málaga from the west. Look out for the geometric patterns of olive groves and vineyards as you cross Andalusia.
