Which side of the plane to sit from Karlsruhe Baden-Baden Airport (Karlsruhe/Baden-Baden) to Lanzarote Airport (Arrecife)?
Right Side of the Plane
While both sides offer great mountain views over France and Spain, the Right Side is superior for the spectacular arrival over the Chinijo Archipelago and the dramatic volcanic landscapes of Lanzarote's western coast.
Search flights from FKB to ACE
Vosges Mountains
The parallel French mountain range visible shortly after departing the Baden-Baden area.
Biscay Coastline
The rugged meeting point of the Atlantic Ocean and the northern coast of Spain.
La Graciosa
Stunning views of the smaller islands in the Chinijo Archipelago just before reaching Lanzarote.
Timanfaya National Park
The 'Fire Mountains' offer a surreal, lunar-like landscape of craters and lava fields.
Famara Cliffs
Massive sea cliffs that rise 600 meters above the Atlantic surf on the northwest coast.
The right side is essential for the 'grand entrance' to Lanzarote. Most flights approach from the north, passing directly over the smaller islands of La Graciosa and Alegranza. Aim for a mid-day flight to see the vibrant turquoise colors of the ocean against the dark volcanic rock. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing for the Timanfaya craters.

Black Forest & Rhine
Immediate views of the dense German forests and the winding Rhine river upon takeoff.
The Pyrenees
A crossing of the high mountain peaks forming the natural border between France and Spain.
Madrid & Meseta
Aerial perspective of the vast Spanish high plateau and the outskirts of the capital city.
Lanzarote East Coast
Views of Arrecife and the contrast of white villages against dark volcanic soil during descent.
Sit on the left for the best morning sun positioning (avoiding direct glare) and views of the Spanish interior. Look out for the Garonne river valley in France about an hour into the flight. During landing, you will see the bustling port of Arrecife.
