LIS β EIN
Which side of the plane to sit from Humberto Delgado Airport (Lisbon Portela Airport) (Lisbon) to Eindhoven Airport (Eindhoven)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a stunning combination of Portugal's Atlantic coastline, the rugged shores of Brittany, and the unique water-management systems of the Dutch Delta during the descent.
Cascais & Silver Coast
Immediately after takeoff, witness the dramatic cliffs and turquoise waters of the Portuguese Atlantic coast.
NazarΓ© North Canyon
Spot the home of the world's largest surfable waves and the massive underwater canyon.
Galician Rias
Aerial views of the deep, fjord-like inlets along the northwestern coast of Spain.
Brittany Peninsula
As you cross the Bay of Biscay, look for the jagged coastline and islands of western France.
Channel Islands
On clear days, Jersey and Guernsey are visible as you transit towards the North Sea.
Zeeland Delta Works
During descent, see the intricate network of dams and sluices protecting the Netherlands from the sea.
Book an 'A' seat for the best coastal views. Morning flights provide excellent lighting on the water without the glare of the sun. As you approach Eindhoven, keep your eyes peeled for the distinct landscape of the Dutch polders and the Scheldt estuary.
Castilian Plateau
The high-altitude plains of central Spain offer vast, golden-hued landscapes.
Picos de Europa
Distances views of the snow-capped limestone peaks in Northern Spain.
Bordeaux Vineyards
Fly over the Garonne river and the world-renowned wine estates of southwestern France.
Loire Valley
The 'Garden of France' reveals its lush green landscapes and occasional historic chateaux.
Antwerp & Brussels
Dense urban clusters and major European infrastructure become visible as you enter Belgian airspace.
North Brabant Fields
The final approach offers a patchwork of Dutch dairy farms and small forested areas.
An 'F' seat is better if you prefer viewing landmasses and mountain silhouettes. In the afternoon, this side is shaded, which is better for photography. Look for the distinct bend of the Garonne river near Bordeaux for a major navigational landmark.
