LEJAGA

Which side of the plane to sit from Leipzig/Halle Airport (Leipzig) to Al Massira Airport (Agadir)?

Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side of the aircraft offers a more diverse landscape palette, featuring the dramatic Pyrenees crossing and a breathtaking parallel view of the High Atlas Mountains during the final leg of the journey.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🏘️

Leipzig Neuseenland

Aerial views of the reclaimed mining lakes and the cityscape of Leipzig shortly after departure.

🏔️

The Pyrenees

A high-altitude crossing of the rugged, snow-capped peaks that separate France and Spain.

🏰

Castilian Plateau

The vast, golden-hued plains of central Spain, punctuated by historic towns and rocky outcrops.

🚢

Strait of Gibraltar

A distant view to the east where the Mediterranean Sea meets the Atlantic Ocean between two continents.

⛰️

High Atlas Mountains

A spectacular view of North Africa's highest peaks as the flight tracks south along the Moroccan coast.

Seats ahead of the wing are ideal to capture the scale of the Atlas Mountains. For daytime flights, the sun will be on this side during the morning, providing bright lighting for photography, though midday glare can be strong. Keep an eye out for the distinctive red soil of the Moroccan interior as you descend.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🍷

French Countryside

A patchwork of vineyards and rolling hills as the flight traverses central and western France.

🌊

Bay of Biscay

The deep blue expanse of the Atlantic Ocean visible as the flight path hugs the western coast of Europe.

🏖️

Portuguese Coastline

Distant views of the dramatic cliffs and beaches of the Algarve region.

⚓

Casablanca Seaport

The sprawling white architecture and massive port infrastructure of Morocco's largest city.

🌅

Atlantic Horizon

Uninterrupted views of the sunset over the water for evening departures.

Choose the right side for late afternoon or evening flights to enjoy a sunset over the Atlantic. During the approach into Agadir, this side often provides the best view of the coastline and the Atlantic waves breaking against the Moroccan shore. It is generally cooler on this side during southbound flights.
