CPH → RAK
Which side of the plane to sit from Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (Copenhagen) to Menara Airport (Marrakech)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior vantage point for the iconic Oresund Bridge at departure and the dramatic, snow-capped High Atlas Mountains during the descent into Marrakech.
Oresund Bridge
Clear views of the massive bridge and tunnel complex connecting Denmark and Sweden immediately after takeoff.
The Pyrenees
A spectacular crossing of the mountain border between France and Spain, featuring rugged peaks and deep valleys.
Madrid Metropolitan Area
As the flight path cuts through central Spain, look for the sprawling urban landscape of the Spanish capital.
Strait of Gibraltar
The narrow gap where the Mediterranean meets the Atlantic, with views of the Rock of Gibraltar and the Moroccan coast.
High Atlas Mountains
Breathtaking views of North Africa's highest peaks, including Mount Toubkal, during the final approach into Marrakech.
Sit on the left for the best sunrise views on morning flights. During departure from CPH, the left side is essential for seeing the bridge to Malmo. For the arrival in Marrakech, the left side offers the most consistent views of the Atlas range as planes often bank left to align with the runway.
Copenhagen Skyline
Panoramic views of the Danish capital's historic spires and modern harbor architecture during initial climb.
North Sea Coastline
Vistas of the Dutch and Belgian polders and the intricate network of dikes and islands along the coast.
Loire Valley
Aerial perspective of the 'Garden of France,' known for its historic chateaux and winding river system.
Western Andalusia
The rolling hills and olive groves of southern Spain as the aircraft approaches the African continent.
Haouz Plain
The red-earthed landscape surrounding Marrakech, contrasting sharply with the green oases of the city's outskirts.
Choose the right side for stunning sunset views on evening flights as you track south. This side provides a better view of the city of Copenhagen if taking off towards the west. It also offers a great perspective of the Atlantic coastline when crossing from Spain into Morocco.
