Betancuria Massif
The ancient, rolling volcanic hills and deep valleys of central Fuerteventura immediately after departure.
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria
The dense urban landscape and busy international port of the archipelago's largest city.
Roque Nublo
The dramatic volcanic plug and sacred monument rising from the center of Gran Canaria's mountainous interior.
Mount Teide
The crown jewel of the flight: a magnificent view of the 3,718-meter volcano piercing through the clouds.
Corona Forestal
The dense belt of Canary Island pine trees encircling the Teide National Park on Tenerife.
Book a window seat well ahead of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of Mount Teide. The volcano usually appears about 10-15 minutes before landing. For the best lighting on the mountain, choose a morning flight when the sun illuminates the eastern face of the crater. This side is also excellent for seeing the rugged, mountainous hearts of the islands.

Jandía Peninsula
View the vast white sand beaches and turquoise lagoons of southern Fuerteventura shortly after takeoff.
Maspalomas Dunes
The iconic mini-desert and golden sand dunes located on the southern tip of Gran Canaria.
Puerto de Mogán
The picturesque 'Little Venice' of Gran Canaria with its distinct marina and white-washed buildings.
El Médano
A vibrant view of the kite-surfing capital of Tenerife with hundreds of colorful sails visible just before touchdown.
Sit on the left for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun reflecting off the Atlantic. This side is superior for seeing the southern coastal resorts and the unique desert-like dunes of Gran Canaria. Look out for whale and dolphin ripples in the water during the short crossing.
