GROWRO

Which side of the plane to sit from Girona Airport (Gerona) to Copernicus Wrocław Airport (Wroclaw)?

Our Recommendation
9.1

Right Side of the Plane

The right side of the aircraft provides a spectacular panorama of the Alps, including views of the highest peaks in Europe like Mont Blanc, and a beautiful perspective of the Mediterranean coastline shortly after takeoff.

Right Side Highlights
9.1
🏖️

Costa Brava

Stunning views of the rugged Catalan coastline and the Mediterranean Sea immediately after departure.

🏔️

Mont Blanc

The highest peak in the Alps often stands out with its permanent snow cap approximately 40 minutes into the flight.

❄️

Swiss Alps

A continuous chain of jagged, snow-covered peaks and deep glacial valleys across Switzerland.

🏙️

Munich Area

Views of the Bavarian capital and the distinctive landscape of Southern Germany if the flight path tracks slightly east.

🏔️

Sudetes Mountains

The Krkonoše range and Sniezka peak visible as the aircraft begins its descent into southwestern Poland.

The right side is superior for mountain lovers; try to book a window seat away from the wing to fully capture the scale of the Alps. For the best lighting on the peaks, choose a morning flight when the sun illuminates the southern faces of the mountains. Keep your camera ready about 35-50 minutes after takeoff for the most dramatic alpine views.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
⛰️

The Pyrenees

Distant views of the eastern edge of the Pyrenees mountain range shortly after takeoff from Girona.

🌋

Massif Central

The rugged, volcanic landscape of central France visible as the flight heads northeast toward Central Europe.

💧

Lake Constance

The large, shimmering Bodensee bordering Switzerland, Germany, and Austria serves as a major navigation landmark.

🌲

Black Forest

The dense, dark evergreen canopies of the Schwarzwald region in southwestern Germany.

🏰

Bohemian Forest

The rolling hills and dense woodlands marking the border between Germany and the Czech Republic.

Sit on the left if you want to see the sunset during late afternoon flights, as the sun will be on this side. It also offers a clearer view of the rolling German countryside and the expansive Lake Constance (Bodensee) during the mid-flight segment.
