FUE → DUS
Which side of the plane to sit from Fuerteventura Airport (Fuerteventura) to Düsseldorf Airport (Duesseldorf)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of Lanzarote's volcanic landscape shortly after takeoff and typically provides the best panorama of the Rhine River and Düsseldorf's city center during the final approach.
Corralejo Sand Dunes
A stunning view of the vast white sand desert at the northern tip of Fuerteventura immediately after takeoff.
Lanzarote Volcanoes
Unparalleled views of Timanfaya National Park's craters and the unique vine-growing region of La Geria.
Loire Valley
Gliding over central France offers glimpses of the winding Loire River and its famous historical châteaux.
Paris Distant View
On clear days, the silhouette of the Eiffel Tower and the business district of La Défense can be spotted to the east.
Düsseldorf Panorama
As the plane banks for landing, enjoy views of the Rhine Tower, the Media Harbour, and the city's modern architecture.
Sit on the right for the best 'volcano spotting' over Lanzarote within the first 10 minutes of flight. To avoid the glare of the morning sun, this side is best for afternoon departures. During the descent into DUS, keep your camera ready for the Rhine River bridges.
Atlantic Horizon
Expansive views of the deep blue Atlantic as the aircraft climbs away from the Canary archipelago.
Fuerteventura West Coast
Aerial perspective of the rugged, cliff-lined western shore and the remote beaches of El Cotillo.
Bay of Biscay
Observation of maritime traffic entering the English Channel and the French coastal contours of Brittany.
Brussels Skyline
Possible distant views of the Belgian capital's urban sprawl and the iconic Atomium if on a westerly track.
Choose this side for evening flights to enjoy the sunset over the Atlantic. It is generally quieter for photography due to less direct sunlight during the northbound journey. Watch for the dramatic transition from the blue ocean to the green landscapes of Normandy.
