Search flights from FAO to FMM
Ria Formosa
The intricate network of lagoons and sand islands near Faro Airport visible right after takeoff.
Central Pyrenees
A magnificent view of the high peaks bordering Spain and France, often snow-capped even in late spring.
Rhone Valley
The meandering Rhone river and the famous vineyard-covered slopes of southeastern France.
Lake Constance
The massive 'Bodensee' lake where Germany, Switzerland, and Austria meet, visible shortly before descent.
Alpine Panorama
A spectacular long-distance view of the Swiss and Austrian Alps to the south as you approach the Allgäu region.
The right side is the clear winner for mountain lovers. During the final 20 minutes of the flight, look south to see the majestic peaks of the Alps. On afternoon flights, use a polarizer if possible as the sun will be on this side of the aircraft. Try to book a seat away from the wing to fully capture the scale of Lake Constance.

Algarve Coastline
Stunning views of the rugged cliffs and golden beaches of southern Portugal immediately after departure.
Extremadura Plains
The vast, arid landscapes of western Spain, characterized by dehesas and ancient agricultural patterns.
Massif Central
The extinct volcanic cones and lush green plateaus of central France visible during mid-flight.
Swabian Jura
Rolling hills and occasional castle ruins as the flight crosses into the Baden-Württemberg region.
Bavarian Countryside
Quaint German villages and a patchwork of green fields during the final descent into Memmingen.
Sit on the left if you want to catch the last glimpse of the Atlantic coast after takeoff. For morning flights, this side will be shaded, providing better conditions for photography without glare. Keep an eye out for the Garonne River as you cross into France.
