FKB → AGP
Which side of the plane to sit from Karlsruhe Baden-Baden Airport (Karlsruhe/Baden-Baden) to Málaga Airport (Malaga)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior sequence of landmarks, including the Black Forest, a distant view of the French Alps, the dramatic Mediterranean coastline, and the snow-capped Sierra Nevada peaks near the end of the journey.
Black Forest
Immediate views of the dense, dark evergreen canopies of the Schwarzwald shortly after departing FKB.
French Alps
On clear days, the distant jagged horizon of the Alpine range, including Mont Blanc, is visible to the east.
Gulf of Lion
The scenic transition from the French mainland to the sparkling blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
Barcelona Coastline
A sweeping view of the Catalan capital and its famous urban grid layout along the Mediterranean shore.
Sierra Nevada
Stunning views of the Mulhacén peak, the highest on the Iberian Peninsula, often covered in snow.
Costa del Sol
The final descent offers a panoramic view of the beaches and luxury resorts leading into Málaga.
Book an 'A' window seat for the best coastal views. Morning flights are particularly scenic as the sun illuminates the Spanish coast from the east. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes after crossing the Pyrenees for the best views of the Mediterranean shoreline.
Vosges Mountains
View of the rounded peaks of the Vosges range across the Rhine valley shortly after takeoff.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic landscape of central France, characterized by unique 'puys' or volcanic cones.
High Pyrenees
A direct look at the most rugged and highest peaks of the mountain range separating France and Spain.
Iberian Meseta
The vast, arid, and golden-hued high plateau of central Spain, offering a stark contrast to the coast.
Sierra Morena
The final mountain barrier before the descent into Andalusia, featuring deep valleys and Mediterranean shrubland.
Choose the right side ('F' seats) if you are flying in the late afternoon or evening to witness a spectacular sunset over the Spanish interior. This side is also better for observing the geological diversity of the Massif Central and the high Pyrenees peaks.
