HHN β NDR
Which side of the plane to sit from Frankfurt-Hahn Airport (Hahn) to Nador International Airport (El Aroui)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Pyrenees crossing and the rugged topography of the Spanish interior before the final descent into North Africa.
HunsrΓΌck Forests
The dense green landscapes of the Rhineland-Palatinate region immediately after departure.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic peaks and rugged plateaus of central France.
The Pyrenees
A spectacular crossing of the snow-capped border between France and Spain.
Spanish Meseta
The vast, golden-brown high plateau of central Spain, dotted with small villages.
Rif Mountains
The dramatic, arid peaks of northern Morocco appearing as you cross the Alboran Sea.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the eastern sun. It provides the best perspective of the Pyrenees mountain range and the dramatic change in terrain from Europe to Africa.
Moselle Valley
Lush vineyards and the winding Moselle river shortly after takeoff from Hahn.
Distant Alps
On very clear days, the western edges of the Alps may be visible to the far east while over France.
Costa Blanca
The sparkling Mediterranean coastline and the salt lakes near Alicante as you head south.
Mar Chica Lagoon
The large saltwater lagoon bordering Nador, offering a stunning turquoise contrast to the city.
Melilla
The Spanish enclave of Melilla is often visible on the left during the final approach.
Choose the left side for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise over the Mediterranean. It is also the preferred side for viewing the Mar Chica lagoon during the final descent into NDR.
