Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏭

Charleroi Industrial Basin

Aerial view of the historic Sambre river and the industrial landscape of the Walloon region immediately after takeoff.

⛰️

Pyrenees Orientales

As the flight crosses the border between France and Spain, look for the snow-capped peaks of the eastern Pyrenees.

πŸ–οΈ

Costa Blanca & Murcia

Clear views of the white sand beaches of the Spanish Mediterranean coast and the arid, volcanic-looking terrain of the Murcia region.

πŸ”οΈ

High Atlas Range

Spectacular views of North Africa's highest peaks, including Mount Toubkal, often covered in snow during winter months.

🏜️

Souss Valley

The fertile green plains of the Souss valley contrasting with the surrounding arid mountains as the plane maneuvers for landing.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. The approach into Agadir often involves a turn over the Atlas Mountains, providing deep shadows and relief contrast that is best viewed from this side. Keep your camera ready about 45 minutes before landing.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🏰

Loire Valley Castles

On clear days, the winding Loire river and its historic chateaus are visible while cruising over central France.

πŸŒ†

Madrid & The Meseta

The flight path often passes west of Madrid, offering views of the vast, high-altitude Spanish plateau and the Sierra de Guadarrama.

πŸ—ΊοΈ

Strait of Gibraltar

A iconic view of the narrow gap between Europe and Africa, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Mediterranean Sea.

🌊

Moroccan Atlantic Coast

Follow the rugged coastline of Morocco, passing near historic port cities like Safi and the windy surfing hub of Essaouira.

πŸŒ…

Atlantic Horizon

Uninterrupted views of the sunset over the Atlantic Ocean on evening flights, creating vibrant orange and purple gradients.

The right side is ideal for late afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over the ocean. It also provides the best chance to see the Rock of Gibraltar if the flight path tracks slightly westward. Use a polarising filter on your camera to cut through the haze often found over the Spanish Meseta.
