IBZ → MRS
Which side of the plane to sit from Ibiza Airport (Ibiza) to Marseille Provence Airport (Marseille)?
Right Side of the Plane
While the left side offers views of the Spanish coastline, the right side provides a superior approach into Marseille, featuring the iconic Calanques cliffs and a stunning panorama of the city and its historic port.
Balearic Sea
Expansive views of the turquoise waters transitioning to deep indigo during the crossing.
Frioul Archipelago
The limestone islands and the famous Château d'If visible during the final descent.
Calanques National Park
Dramatic white limestone cliffs and hidden turquoise coves along the coast south of Marseille.
Vieux-Port
A bird's-eye view of Marseille's historic harbor and the Basilica of Notre-Dame de la Garde.
Choose a window seat behind the wing to avoid obstructing the view of the Calanques. The descent into MRS often involves a sweeping turn over the Bay of Marseille, making this side spectacular during golden hour.
Dalt Vila
Aerial view of Ibiza's historic old town and fortified walls shortly after takeoff.
Barcelona Skyline
Distant but clear views of the Sagrada Família and the Eixample grid if the path hugs the coast.
The Pyrenees
On clear days, the snow-capped peaks of the eastern Pyrenees are visible to the northwest.
Camargue Wetlands
The unique salt pans and marshy landscapes of the Rhone delta as you enter French airspace.
Morning flights offer the best lighting for the Spanish coast without the glare of the Mediterranean. Keep a close eye out early in the flight for the rugged coastline of the Costa Brava.
