FEZEBU

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior panoramic experience, featuring the sprawling Fes Medina at takeoff, the shimmering Spanish Mediterranean coastline, and a stunning distant view of the French Alps during the descent into St-Etienne.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏘️

Fes el Bali

A rare aerial perspective of the dense, labyrinthine streets of the world's largest medieval medina.

🏖️

Costa Blanca

The striking contrast between the turquoise Mediterranean Sea and the white sandy beaches of eastern Spain.

💧

Ebro Delta

The distinctive bird-foot shape of the Ebro River delta protruding into the Balearic Sea.

🏔️

Eastern Pyrenees

Glacial valleys and high-altitude lakes near the border of Andorra.

🏔️

French Alps

On clear days, the entire Alpine chain including Mont Blanc is visible on the eastern horizon during the descent.

The right side is the 'scenic' choice for alpine enthusiasts; even though the flight doesn't cross the Alps, the distant views are spectacular in clear weather. During the summer, the late afternoon sun will be behind the plane, providing excellent glare-free lighting for photography of the Spanish coast and the Rhone Valley.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
⛰️

Middle Atlas Mountains

Rugged ridges and cedar forests of the Moroccan highlands immediately after departure from Fes.

❄️

Sierra Nevada

The highest peaks of mainland Spain, often featuring snow-capped summits even in late spring.

🏜️

Iberian Meseta

The vast, sun-drenched central plateau of Spain with its unique geometric agricultural patterns.

🏔️

Central Pyrenees

A dramatic crossing of the high-altitude border between Spain and France with jagged limestone peaks.

🌋

Auvergne Volcanic Park

The ancient, rounded dormant craters of the Massif Central visible during the final approach.

Choose the left side for morning flights to see the Sierra Nevada illuminated by the rising sun. This side is also better for spotting the unique 'puys' (volcanic domes) of central France during the descent into EBU. Keep an eye out roughly 30 minutes after takeoff for the transition from the African continent to the European coast.
