Roque Nublo
Immediately after takeoff, see the iconic volcanic monolith in the heart of Gran Canaria's mountainous interior.
Lanzarote & Fuerteventura
View the 'Martian' volcanic landscapes of the easternmost Canary Islands as you head north toward Europe.
The Pyrenees
A dramatic crossing of the snow-capped mountain range that forms the natural border between Spain and France.
Bordeaux Vineyards
Peer down at the geometric patterns of some of the world's most famous vineyards in the Garonne river basin.
Cologne & The Rhine
On final approach, you can often see the Cologne Cathedral and the industrial heart of the Ruhr area along the Rhine.
Choose the right side for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side provides the most interesting geological views, particularly over the Pyrenees and the volcanic formations of the Canaries. For the best views of the Rhine-Ruhr area on arrival, keep an eye out for the distinctive industrial silos and the winding Rhine river.

Mount Teide
Look back shortly after takeoff for a glimpse of Spain's highest peak on the neighboring island of Tenerife.
Atlantic Coastline
Spectacular views of the Portuguese and Galician coasts if the flight follows the Western European airway.
Brittany Peninsula
The rugged, jagged cliffs of the French region of Brittany are visible as you cross the Bay of Biscay.
Rotterdam Port
One of the world's largest ports is often visible on the descent through Dutch and Belgian airspace.
Niederrhein
The lush green floodplains of the Lower Rhine appear just before the wheels touch down in Düsseldorf.
The left side is the premium choice for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Atlantic Ocean. It is also generally better for viewing the Port of Rotterdam and the Belgian coastline during the descent if the approach into DUS comes from the northwest.
