Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side provides a superior mix of urban landmarks and distant mountain vistas, including the Pyrenees horizon and the chance to spot the Parisian sprawl and Belgian city centers.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Madrid Skyline

Aerial view of the Cuatro Torres skyscrapers and the dense urban core during climb-out.

🏔️

Pyrenees Mountains

Snow-capped peaks of the mountain range separating Spain and France on the eastern horizon.

🗼

Parisian Basin

The sprawling urban density of Paris and the Seine river visible during the mid-flight transition.

🇧🇪

Brussels Landscape

The intricate urban layout of the Belgian capital and the surrounding flatlands of Flanders.

🇳🇱

Brabant Countryside

Neat Dutch agricultural grids and canal systems as the aircraft descends into Eindhoven.

The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to enjoy sunset views over Europe without direct glare. Look east mid-flight to spot the Pyrenees, and stay alert during the final 30 minutes for a potential glimpse of the Eiffel Tower or the high-density urban clusters of the Benelux region.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Sierra de Guadarrama

Dramatic granite peaks and forests north of Madrid visible shortly after departure.

🌊

Bay of Biscay

The deep blue Atlantic coastline appearing as the flight crosses the Franco-Spanish border.

🍷

Bordeaux Vineyards

Geometric patterns of world-renowned vineyards along the Garonne River banks.

🏝️

Atlantic Islands

The distinctive shapes of Île d'Oléron and Île de Ré off the western coast of France.

🏰

Loire Valley

Lush greenery and winding river bends known for historic French châteaux.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the glare of the eastern sun. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes after takeoff for the rugged Spanish mountains, and watch for the massive Dune of Pilat if the flight path hugs the French coast.
