Which side of the plane to sit from Brussels South Charleroi Airport (Charleroi) to Tenerife South Airport (Tenerife)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a superior vantage point for the dramatic Portuguese coastline and the grand silhouette of Mount Teide during the final approach to Tenerife.
Bordeaux & Garonne
The famous wine region of France and the winding Garonne river passing through the city.
Dune du Pilat
The tallest sand dune in Europe, located at the mouth of the Arcachon Bay on the French coast.
Lisbon & Tagus Estuary
Spectacular views of the Portuguese capital and the 25 de Abril Bridge crossing the river.
Atlantic Horizon
Endless ocean views with frequent sightings of maritime shipping lanes and atmospheric cloud formations.
Mount Teide
The majestic peak of Spain's highest mountain piercing through the clouds during the final descent into Tenerife.
The right side is the 'money side' for the approach into Tenerife South. Mount Teide is almost always visible from this side as the plane descends along the northern and eastern coast of the island. Be aware that on afternoon flights, the sun will be on this side, making it quite bright; bring sunglasses or use the window shade until the descent begins.
Paris Basin
Distant views of the French capital's urban sprawl shortly after crossing the border from Belgium.
The Pyrenees
If the route is inland, enjoy views of the snow-capped peaks forming the border between France and Spain.
Castilian Plateau
The high-altitude, golden plains of central Spain visible during the mid-flight cruise.
Moroccan Coastline
Clear days offer glimpses of the African continent and the High Atlas mountains in the distance.
Eastern Canary Islands
Views of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura's unique volcanic landscapes as you enter the archipelago.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and glare. This side is excellent for spotting the 'Sea of Clouds' effect over the Atlantic and the eastern Canary Islands shortly before descent. If the flight path takes a more easterly route over Spain, you may also see the lights of Madrid or Seville during evening flights.
