FUE โ LUX
Which side of the plane to sit from Fuerteventura Airport (Fuerteventura) to Luxembourg-Findel International Airport (Luxemburg)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an immediate and stunning view of Lanzarote's volcanic landscape after takeoff, followed by a cross-continental journey over the heart of Spain and the lush forests of the Ardennes.
Lanzarote Volcanics
Immediately after takeoff, witness the dramatic Timanfaya National Park and the neighboring island's stark craters.
Gulf of Cรกdiz
The point where the flight crosses from the Atlantic into the mainland European continent near Huelva.
Seville & Guadalquivir
Aerial views of the historic Andalusian capital and the winding river that defined its history.
The Spanish Meseta
The vast, high-altitude central plateau of Spain with its distinctive red earth and rugged mountains.
Loire Valley Chรขteaux
As the plane crosses central France, look for the historic estates and the wide banks of the Loire River.
The Ardennes Forest
The dense, rolling green hills that span the borders of France, Belgium, and Luxembourg just before landing.
Choose a seat behind the wing on the right side for the best photography of Lanzarote right after departure from FUE. Midday flights offer the best lighting to see the vibrant contrast between the orange Spanish soil and the deep green forests of northern France and Luxembourg.
The Vast Atlantic
Expansive views of the deep blue ocean during the initial climb out of the Canary Islands.
Portuguese Coastline
Distant views of the rugged cliffs and beaches of Portugal, including the Sintra-Cascais region.
Bay of Biscay
The transition from the open sea to the western French coastline near La Rochelle and the Ile de Rรฉ.
Bordeaux Vineyards
The geometric patterns of the world-famous wine regions in southwestern France.
The Paris Basin
On clear days, the distant sprawl of the French capital region can be seen to the northeast.
French Farmland
The iconic 'patchwork quilt' of rural France as the plane enters the final descent phase.
The left side is ideal for late afternoon flights to avoid direct glare from the sun. During the final approach into LUX, if the wind is from the west, you might catch a glimpse of the Moselle River's winding loops and the industrial history of southern Luxembourg near Belval.
