Which side of the plane to sit from Domodedovo International Airport (Moscow) to Tenerife South Airport (Tenerife)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side is preferred for its spectacular approach view of Mount Teide and the dramatic crossing of the Pyrenees mountains.
Pyrenees Mountains
Breathtaking views of the rugged, snow-capped border between France and Spain.
Bay of Biscay
The transition from the lush green coast of Northern Spain to the deep blue of the Atlantic Ocean.
Portuguese Atlantic Coast
Scenic views of the cliffs and long sandy beaches near the western edge of the Iberian Peninsula.
Mount Teide
Spain's highest peak and the volcanic heart of Tenerife, often seen poking through a sea of clouds.
Atlantic Sunset
If on an afternoon flight, this side offers an unobstructed view of the sun setting into the ocean horizon.
The right side is the 'money side' for the approach to Tenerife South. As the plane turns to align with the runway, Mount Teide usually dominates the window view. Be aware that the afternoon sun will be on this side for the majority of the flight, so keep the window shade handy.
Central European Cities
Aerial views of metropolitan areas across Poland and Germany, showing intricate urban layouts.
The Spanish Meseta
The high, arid plateau of central Spain with its unique golden-brown hues and geometric farm patterns.
Strait of Gibraltar
On clear days, the distant silhouette of the North African coast and the gap between continents is visible.
Eastern Canary Islands
The arid, volcanic landscapes of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura appear as you descend toward Tenerife.
Tenerife South Coast
Views of the turquoise waters and white-capped waves along the coastline of El MΓ©dano during final approach.
Sit on the left if you want to see the other Canary Islands during the final 20 minutes of the flight. This side is also better for avoiding direct glare during the morning portion of the flight departing Moscow.
