Which side of the plane to sit from Lappeenranta Airport (Lappeenranta) to Girona Airport (Gerona)?

Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a superior vantage point for the dramatic crossing of the High Alps and the stunning coastal approach over the Costa Brava's rugged shoreline.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🌲

Lake Saimaa

Spectacular views of Finland's largest lake system and its intricate network of islands immediately after takeoff.

🏙️

Prague Cityscape

Clear views of the Vltava River and the historical core of the Czech capital during the transit over Central Europe.

🏔️

Austrian & Swiss Alps

A breathtaking panorama of snow-capped peaks and glaciers as the flight path crosses the heart of the European Alps.

🏖️

Costa Brava Coastline

Vibrant turquoise waters and rocky coves of the Mediterranean coast during the final descent into Girona.

Sit ahead of the wing for an unobstructed view of the Alpine peaks. On afternoon flights, the sun will be behind you, providing excellent lighting for photos of the Mediterranean coastline and the Pyrenees foothills.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🌊

Gulf of Finland

Views of the vast Baltic Sea and potentially the distant outlines of the Estonian coast.

🏢

Berlin Metropolitan Area

The sprawling urban landscape of the German capital is often visible on the starboard side during the mid-flight segment.

🏞️

Lake Constance

The large 'Bodensee' lake bordering Germany, Switzerland, and Austria offers a scenic landmark.

⛰️

The Pyrenees

Dramatic views of the high mountain ridge separating France and Spain as the aircraft prepares for its landing.

The right side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over Western Europe. During the winter months, look for the stark contrast of snow-covered peaks in the Massif Central region of France.
