Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior sequence of coastal views, from the eastern Canary Islands to the Portuguese shoreline, the tip of Brittany, and the diverse landscape of England.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏝️

Fuerteventura & Lanzarote

Excellent views of the arid, volcanic landscapes of the eastern Canary Islands during the initial climb.

πŸŒ‰

Lisbon Coastline

Views of the Tagus River estuary and the urban sprawl of the Portuguese capital.

🏰

Brittany Peninsula

The rocky western tip of France, including the lighthouses of the Finistère department.

πŸ–οΈ

Cornish Riviera

The dramatic cliffs and sandy coves of Cornwall and Devon as the flight enters UK airspace.

🌳

The Peak District

Green moorlands and rolling hills of Northern England during the final descent into Leeds.

The right side is generally more scenic for this route. Sit here to see the Portuguese coast and the French shoreline. During the descent, you'll have a better view of the English countryside. For morning flights, this side will have direct sunlight, so keep your window shade ready.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
πŸŒ‹

Mount Teide

Spain's highest peak on Tenerife is often visible shortly after departure from Gran Canaria.

🌊

Atlantic Horizon

Expansive views of the deep blue Atlantic Ocean during the mid-flight cruise.

🏞️

Galician Rias

The jagged, fjord-like coastline of Northwest Spain visible as you cross the Bay of Biscay.

⛰️

Snowdonia

The rugged mountains of North Wales can be seen if the approach path takes the plane over the Irish Sea.

Select the left side if you want a chance to see Mount Teide early in the flight. This side is also preferable for evening flights to avoid the harsh glare of the setting sun while still catching the silhouette of the Welsh mountains upon arrival.
