Which side of the plane to sit from Frankfurt-Hahn Airport (Hahn) to Reus Air Base (Reus)?

Our Recommendation

Right Side Highlights

🍷

Moselle Valley

Lush vineyards and steep river bends immediately after departing Hahn.

🌋

Chaîne des Puys

The unique landscape of extinct volcanic domes in the Auvergne region of France.

⛰️

Cévennes National Park

Rugged limestone plateaus and deep gorges of the southern Massif Central.

🏔️

Eastern Pyrenees

The majestic mountain range forming the border between France and Spain.

🍇

Priorat Wine Region

The terraced hillsides and rocky terrain of Catalonia's world-famous wine country.

Choose the right side for the most dramatic geological features. The highlight is the Massif Central’s volcanic peaks halfway through the flight. On the descent, the rugged Montsant mountains provide a stunning backdrop. Afternoon flights offer the best lighting for photography on this side.

On clear days, see the jagged white peaks of the Western Alps lining the eastern horizon.

Port of Tarragona

The industrial and historical maritime hub just north of the final destination.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is ideal for spotting the Mediterranean coastline and the distant silhouette of the Alps. During the final approach, look for the Roman ruins of Tarragona visible just before landing.
