Which side of the plane to sit from Dublin Airport (Dublin) to San Javier Airport (Murcia)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers superior views of the Irish coastline during departure and an unbeatable perspective of the Mar Menor lagoon and La Manga strip during the final approach into Murcia.
Dublin Bay
Aerial views of Howth Head and the North Bull Island immediately after departure.
Bay of Biscay
Deep blue waters as the aircraft transitions from the Atlantic toward the European mainland.
Eastern Pyrenees
Glimpses of the high mountain peaks dividing France and Spain.
Costa Blanca
The white-sand coastline and high-rise skyline of Benidorm visible in the distance.
Mar Menor
A stunning view of Europe's largest saltwater lagoon just before touchdown.
Sit on the left for the best view of the La Manga strip during descent. Afternoon flights provide excellent lighting for the Spanish coastline without the glare of the sun.
Wicklow Mountains
The 'Garden of Ireland' visible to the south during the initial climb.
Picos de Europa
Dramatic limestone massifs visible as the flight enters Spanish airspace.
Meseta Central
The vast, high-altitude plateau of central Spain with its unique ochre hues.
Madrid Skyline
On clear days, the distant skyscrapers of the Spanish capital may be visible.
Murcian Orchards
The lush agricultural 'huerta' of the Segura river valley during the descent.
The right side is ideal for capturing the rugged terrain of northern Spain. If flying in winter, watch for snow-covered peaks in the Picos de Europa or Sierra de Guadarrama.
