Isla de Lobos
A pristine volcanic islet visible immediately after departure from Fuerteventura's northern coast.
Spanish Meseta
The vast, high-altitude central plateau of Spain, often passing close to Madrid's urban sprawl.
The Pyrenees
A spectacular crossing of the snow-capped mountain range dividing the Iberian Peninsula from France.
Massif Central
Views of the 'Chaîne des Puys,' a series of dormant volcanic domes in the heart of France.
The Black Forest
Extensive views of the dark, wooded mountains of the Schwarzwald during the final approach to STR Airport.
The right side is essential for mountain lovers. The Pyrenees crossing is the flight's visual peak, usually occurring around the midpoint of the journey. In winter, the snow-covered Massif Central and Black Forest offer stunning contrast. Note that the sun will be on this side for much of the afternoon, so window shades may be necessary during the cruise phase.

Dramatic views of the neighbouring island's volcanic craters shortly after takeoff from Fuerteventura.
Atlantic Coastline
Depending on the track, you may see the rugged cliffs of the Portuguese coast or the Bay of Biscay.
Dune of Pilat
Look for Europe's tallest sand dune along the French coastline near Arcachon.
Loire Valley
Aerial views of France's longest river and its famous historical châteaux in the central regions.
Strasbourg Area
Views of the Rhine River and the border region between France and Germany before the final turn.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct glare from the sun. This side is particularly good for spotting the coastal transition from the Atlantic into the French mainland near Bordeaux. Keep a lookout for the silver winding of the Loire River about 3 hours into the flight.
