Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior visual experience, featuring a dramatic crossing of the Pyrenees and a stunning descent alongside Mallorca's UNESCO-protected mountain range and the iconic Bay of Palma.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌲

Hunsrück Forest

Immediate views of the lush, hilly terrain surrounding the Hahn airfield after takeoff.

🌋

Massif Central

Fly over the unique volcanic landscape and ancient plateaus of south-central France.

🏔️

Pyrenees Range

A spectacular crossing of the high mountain peaks separating France from the Iberian Peninsula.

🏙️

Barcelona Coastline

Depending on the specific air corridor, see the distant skyline of Barcelona and the Catalan shore.

⛰️

Serra de Tramuntana

Unrivaled views of the steep limestone mountains running along Mallorca's northwestern coast.

⛪

Bay of Palma

A front-row seat to the Palma Cathedral and the bustling harbor during the final descent.

The right side is unmatched for sunset flights, offering golden hour views over the Mediterranean. Watch for the Tramuntana mountains roughly 20 minutes before landing. If the aircraft approaches from the north, the turn over the city provides an incredible view of the historic district.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Vosges Mountains

Early views of the rounded granite peaks and dense forests of eastern France shortly after departure.

🏔️

Distant Alps

On clear days, the snow-capped Swiss and French Alps are visible on the far eastern horizon over the wing.

🏘️

Rhône Valley

Aerial views of the winding river and the transition from central European to Mediterranean landscapes.

🌊

Mallorca North Coast

The rugged cliffs of Cap de Formentor often come into view during the initial island approach.

Choose the left side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you and avoid glare. This side provides the best perspective of the island's eastern coastline and the interior agricultural plains during the final descent.
