Which side of the plane to sit from London Luton Airport (London) to Reus Air Base (Reus)?

Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers superior views of the dramatic Massif Central volcanic region, the high peaks of the Pyrenees, and the Mediterranean coastline during the final approach into Reus.

๐Ÿž๏ธ

Loire Valley

The twisting bends of the Loire River and the historic estates of the 'Garden of France'.

๐ŸŒ‹

Massif Central

Fly over the Chaรฎne des Puys, featuring ancient volcanic domes and craters in central France.

๐Ÿ”๏ธ

The High Pyrenees

Spectacular views of the rugged, snow-capped peaks as the flight crosses the border into Spain.

๐Ÿ–๏ธ

Costa Dorada

Sweeping views of the Mediterranean sea and the golden beaches of Tarragona during descent.

Choose the left side for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise over the French interior. This side provides a much better perspective of the Pyrenees' highest peaks and the coastal turn toward Reus airport. Keep an eye out about 20 minutes before landing for the volcanic parks of Auvergne.

Right Side Highlights

๐ŸŒฒ

Expansive views of the pine forests and agricultural heartlands of western France.

The right side is preferable for afternoon flights as it avoids direct glare from the sun. It offers a great view of the French coastline and the gradual transition into the Spanish landscape. If the flight path takes a western route, you may see the Bay of Biscay in the distance.
