Which side of the plane to sit from Fuerteventura Airport (Fuerteventura) to Tenerife Norte Airport (Tenerife)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an unparalleled sequence of views including Fuerteventura's dunes, the northern coastline of Gran Canaria, and a majestic approach toward Mount Teide on Tenerife.
Corralejo Dunes
The vast golden sand dunes of northern Fuerteventura visible shortly after takeoff.
Lobos Island
A pristine volcanic islet sitting in the turquoise waters between Fuerteventura and Lanzarote.
Las Palmas
Clear views of Gran Canaria's capital city and the iconic Las Canteras beach.
Mount Teide
The most spectacular landmark: Spain's highest peak rising above the clouds.
Orotava Valley
Lush, green landscapes of northern Tenerife sloping from the volcano to the sea.
Book a window seat on the right for the iconic view of Mount Teide. For morning flights, this side avoids direct glare. Keep your camera ready about 15-20 minutes into the flight for the best shot of Teide as you pass Gran Canaria and approach Tenerife Norte.
Atlantic Horizon
Expansive views of the deep blue Atlantic and the southern horizon of the archipelago.
Anaga Massif
Rugged, prehistoric volcanic peaks of the Anaga Rural Park during the final approach.
Santa Cruz Port
Aerial view of Tenerife's capital city and its busy industrial and cruise port.
Choose the left side if you want a closer look at the Anaga mountains during the descent, but be aware that the sun can be quite strong on this side during midday flights heading west.
