Loire Valley Châteaux
Look for the winding Loire River and its famous historic castles as you transit western France.
Picos de Europa
The dramatic limestone spires of Northern Spain are often visible as the flight crosses the Bay of Biscay coastline.
Atlantic Silver Coast
View the powerful surf and long sandy stretches of the Portuguese coastline north of Lisbon.
Sintra & Pena Palace
Near the journey's end, the mystical Sintra mountains and the colorful Pena Palace are visible on clear days.
Cabo da Roca
The westernmost point of mainland Europe, where cliffs drop dramatically into the Atlantic Ocean.
The right side is superior for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. It offers the best views of the Atlantic coastline and the Picos de Europa mountain range in Spain. For the most iconic arrival into LIS, the right side captures the Sintra hills and the dramatic Cabo da Roca cliffs during the standard descent path.

Mosel Valley Vineyards
Immediately after departure from Hahn, view the steep, winding river loops and world-famous Riesling vineyards.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic peaks and rugged terrain of south-central France provide a textured landscape.
Castilian Meseta
The high-altitude Spanish plateau offers vast, golden landscapes and unique geometric agricultural patterns.
Tagus Estuary
As you descend into Lisbon, see the expansive Vasco da Gama Bridge and the urban sprawl of the city's eastern districts.
Choose the left side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. If the aircraft approaches Lisbon from the south (Runway 03), this side provides an excellent view of the city center and the 25th of April Bridge. Keep an eye out for the Mosel river shortly after takeoff as the plane climbs out of the Hunsrück hills.
