Which side of the plane to sit from Humberto Delgado Airport (Lisbon Portela Airport) (Lisbon) to Málaga Airport (Malaga)?
Right Side of the Plane
While the left side offers views of Lisbon and Seville, the right side provides a more dramatic perspective of the Iberian coastline, the unique wetlands of Doñana National Park, and a stunning approach over the Mediterranean toward the Costa del Sol.

Atlantic Horizon
Sweeping views where the deep blue Atlantic Ocean meets the southwestern edge of the European continent.
Algarve Coastline
The famous golden cliffs and turquoise coves of Southern Portugal as the flight tracks toward the Spanish border.
Doñana National Park
One of Europe's most important wetlands, visible as a mosaic of marshes, sand dunes, and lagoons near Huelva.
Costa del Sol Approach
A spectacular descent over the Mediterranean, passing the beaches of Fuengirola and Torremolinos before landing.
This side is superior for sunset flights as the sun dips over the Atlantic. Keep your camera ready about 35 minutes into the flight to capture the intricate patterns of the Doñana marshes. During the final approach, the right side offers the most scenic 'over-water' feel.

Lisbon Cityscape
Aerial views of the Tagus River, the 25 de Abril Bridge, and the historic Alfama district shortly after takeoff.
Alentejo Plains
The golden-brown agricultural heartland of Portugal with its iconic cork oak forests and scattered rural estates.
Seville
The capital of Andalusia is often visible mid-flight, characterized by the winding Guadalquivir River and its vast urban sprawl.
Sierra de las Nieves
Rugged limestone mountains and deep ravines visible during the initial descent into the Malaga province.
Sit in front of the wing for unobstructed views of Lisbon during the initial climb. For morning flights, this side experiences less direct sunlight, making it easier to photograph the landscape without glare.
