Search flights from LPA to EIN
Eastern Canaries
Clear views of the volcanic craters and golden beaches of Fuerteventura and Lanzarote during the initial climb.
Galician Rias
The unique fjord-like estuaries of Northwest Spain as the flight crosses the Bay of Biscay.
Dune du Pilat
The highest sand dune in Europe located near Bordeaux is often visible on clear days.
Loire Valley
The fertile heart of France featuring winding rivers and historic chateaus.
North Brabant
The patchwork of Dutch fields and industrial hubs as you descend into Eindhoven.
The right side is best for landmark spotting. On departure, watch for the stark contrast of Lanzarote's landscape. For the best photography of the French and Spanish coasts, an early morning or mid-day flight is recommended to have the sun behind the aircraft. Keep a lookout for the 'Silver Coast' of France as you cross from the Bay of Biscay.

Mount Teide
If the flight path banks north, you can see the massive peak of Tenerife rising above the cloud layer.
Deep Atlantic
Dramatic views of the open ocean and the transition from tropical to temperate waters.
Brittany Coastline
The rugged westernmost tip of France with its rocky inlets and isolated lighthouses.
English Channel
Observation of major maritime shipping lanes as the aircraft approaches the European mainland.
Choose the left side for afternoon flights to experience stunning sunsets over the Atlantic Ocean. However, be aware of high-altitude glare which can make photography difficult during the peak of the day. This side is ideal for those who enjoy the serenity of the open sea and coastal silhouettes.
