London Skyline
If departing towards the east before banking south, enjoy a panoramic view of the Thames and London's skyscrapers.
Brittany Coastline
Stunning views of the jagged cliffs and rocky outcroppings of the westernmost tip of France.
Bay of Biscay
Look for large container ships and tankers navigating one of the Atlantic's most famous maritime passages.
Tower of Hercules
The world's oldest working Roman lighthouse is often visible on the final approach over the Atlantic.
Riazor Stadium
The iconic beachfront football stadium of A Coruña can be seen clearly during the descent.
For the best experience, choose the right side for afternoon flights. The descent into A Coruña often involves a turn over the ocean that provides a spectacular view of the 'Glass City' and its unique coastal architecture. Keep a camera ready for the Tower of Hercules approximately 5 minutes before touchdown.

Windsor Castle
Exiting London, catch a glimpse of the historic royal residence nestled in the Berkshire countryside.
Isle of Wight
Clear views of the Solent and the distinct diamond shape of England's largest island.
French Farmland
The patchwork quilt of agricultural fields across the Normandy and Brittany regions of France.
Galician Rías
Lush green estuaries and dense forests of inland Galicia as the plane prepares for landing.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun while crossing the Bay of Biscay. This side provides a better perspective of the interior Galician landscape if the flight path approaches LCG from the south.
