Which side of the plane to sit from Fuerteventura Airport (Fuerteventura) to Vienna International Airport (Vienna)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers a spectacular vantage point for the main crest of the Alps and the snow-capped Pyrenees, providing superior mountain views throughout the journey.
Canarian Horizon
Distant views of Gran Canaria and the peak of Teide on Tenerife may be visible depending on the departure vector.
The Pyrenees
A magnificent crossing over the high peaks of the Pyrenees, offering a clear view of the border between Spain and France.
The High Alps
Panoramic views of the central Alpine massif, including the snow-covered peaks of Switzerland and Western Austria.
Lake Constance
The shimmering waters of Bodensee, where Germany, Switzerland, and Austria meet, are often visible mid-flight.
Vienna Woods & Danube
On final approach, enjoy views of the winding Danube River and the forested hills surrounding the city of Vienna.
The right side is the premium choice for mountain lovers. For the best experience, book a morning or midday flight to see the sun illuminating the southern slopes of the Alps. Be sure to look out about 60-90 minutes before landing for the most dramatic mountain scenery.
Lanzarote Volcanos
Stunning aerial view of the Timanfaya National Park and the neighboring island's volcanic craters shortly after takeoff.
Bay of Biscay
A vast expanse of deep blue water often showing dramatic wave patterns and coastal transitions near the French border.
Loire Valley
Aerial perspective of the winding Loire River and the fertile green plains of central France, famous for historic chateaus.
Northern Alpine Foothills
Views of the rolling hills and lakes of the Bavarian and Austrian pre-alps as the flight nears its destination.
Choose the left side for the best departure views of Lanzarote's volcanic landscape. Since the flight heads Northeast, the left side avoids direct sunlight for most of the day, making it easier to take glare-free photos of the French countryside and the northern edge of the Alps.
