Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side is superior for this route as it provides a front-row seat to the iconic Rock of Gibraltar, the snow-capped Sierra Nevada mountains in southern Spain, and the rugged Rif range in northern Morocco.

Left Side Highlights

🌲

Black Forest

Observe the dense evergreen canopy of southwestern Germany shortly after departing Frankfurt.

French Alps

Visible in the distance to the east, the snow-covered peaks of the Western Alps offer a stunning horizon over France.

🏖️

Costa del Sol

View the sparkling Mediterranean coastline and famous resort towns as the flight traverses southern Andalusia.

❄️

Sierra Nevada

A spectacular view of mainland Spain's highest peaks, often capped with snow throughout the year.

⛰️

Rock of Gibraltar

The most iconic landmark of the trip, marking the narrow gateway between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic.

⛰️

Rif Mountains

Experience the dramatic transition into Africa with the rugged, green-hued mountain ranges of northern Morocco.

Choose a window seat forward of the wing for unobstructed views. On morning flights, the sun will illuminate the Spanish coast and the Rock of Gibraltar perfectly. This side is essential for seeing the geographic 'pillars of Hercules' as you cross into African airspace.

During the descent into Casablanca, enjoy a bird's-eye view of the Moroccan capital and the Bou Regreg river.
