Which side of the plane to sit from Eindhoven Airport (Eindhoven) to Saïss Airport (Fes)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior view of the iconic Rock of Gibraltar and the scenic Mediterranean coastline of Spain and Northern Morocco during the final approach.
French Countryside
Rolling hills and agricultural patterns of the Burgundy and Auvergne regions.
Spanish Mediterranean Coast
Bird's eye views of the coastal developments and beaches near Valencia and Malaga.
Rock of Gibraltar
The dramatic limestone monolith marking the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea.
Strait of Gibraltar
Visible maritime traffic navigating the narrow water passage between Europe and Africa.
Rif Mountains
The rugged, often lush green mountain ranges of Northern Morocco as you descend into Fes.
Sit on the left (seat K or F depending on aircraft) to witness the crossing of the continents. Mid-day flights provide the best lighting for the blue Mediterranean waters. As you enter Moroccan airspace, look for the contrast between the green Rif mountains and the drier inland plateaus.
The Pyrenees
Spectacular views of the high peaks separating France and Spain, often snow-capped in winter.
Madrid & The Meseta
The vast, high-altitude central Spanish plateau and the urban sprawl of the capital.
Atlantic Ocean
Glimpses of the Atlantic coastline near the Gulf of Cadiz in the distance.
Andalusian Groves
Endless patterns of olive groves and orange orchards across southern Spain.
White Villages
Distant sightings of the famous Pueblos Blancos nestled in the Andalusian hills.
The right side is excellent for viewing the Pyrenees crossing. If taking an evening flight, the right side will offer a beautiful sunset over the Atlantic as you approach the African coast. Use a window on the right to see the vastness of the Spanish interior.
