HEL β PMI
Which side of the plane to sit from Helsinki Vantaa Airport (Helsinki) to Palma De Mallorca Airport (Palma de Mallorca)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Western Alps, including potential sightings of Mont Blanc, and provides a front-row seat to the dramatic Serra de Tramuntana mountain range upon arrival in Mallorca.
Stockholm Archipelago
Distant glimpses of the thousands of islands dotting the Swedish coastline across the Baltic.
Berlin Vistas
Frequent flight paths provide a distant look at the urban sprawl of the German capital and surrounding lakes.
Western Alps
Premium views of the highest European peaks, often including the majestic Mont Blanc massif.
Serra de Tramuntana
The rugged UNESCO World Heritage limestone mountains lining the northwest coast of Mallorca during descent.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to enjoy the golden hour light hitting the Alps. For the best experience, sit behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Mallorca coastline as the plane banks for its final approach. Look for the dramatic cliffs of the northern coast about 15 minutes before landing.
Baltic Crossing
Deep blue views of the Baltic Sea and the coastline of Northern Poland shortly after departure.
Central Alps
Spectacular panoramas of the snow-capped Swiss and Austrian mountain peaks midway through the flight.
French Riviera
Stunning aerial views of the azure waters and luxury ports along the CΓ΄te d'Azur and the Gulf of Lion.
Palma Cathedral
A beautiful view of the 'La Seu' cathedral and the harbor if the flight approaches PMI from the bay.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is particularly rewarding for viewing the expansive Alpine ranges and the sunrise over the Baltic Sea during early departures. Keep your camera ready about 2 hours into the flight for the mountain peaks.
