Which side of the plane to sit from Menorca Airport (Menorca) to Düsseldorf Airport (Duesseldorf)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a magnificent distant panorama of the snow-capped Alps followed by a scenic descent over the Rhine Valley and the Cologne urban landscape.
Mahón Harbor
A stunning view of one of the largest natural harbors in the world shortly after departure.
French & Swiss Alps
An impressive long-distance view of the high Alpine peaks, including Mont Blanc, stretching across the eastern horizon.
Lake Geneva
The distinct crescent shape of the lake is often visible to the east while cruising over eastern France.
Black Forest
The dark, dense evergreen forests of southwestern Germany appearing as you enter German airspace.
Cologne Cathedral
During the descent, keep an eye out for the iconic twin spires of the Kölner Dom to the east.
Rhine River
Follow the winding path of the Rhine as the aircraft maneuvers for its final approach into Düsseldorf.
The right side is superior for morning departures to see the sun rising over the Alps. During the final approach to DUS, this side typically offers a better view of the Rhine and the industrial landscape of the Ruhr region.
Menorca Northern Coast
Breathtaking views of the rugged cliffs and turquoise waters of northern Menorca during the initial climb.
Gulf of Lion
A broad view of the Mediterranean coast where the sea meets the French Languedoc region.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic terrain and rolling highlands of south-central France.
Burgundy Vineyards
The intricate patchwork of world-renowned wine estates in eastern France.
Ardennes Forest
The dense green expanses of the Ardennes plateau near the borders of France, Belgium, and Luxembourg.
Choose the left side for afternoon flights to avoid direct sunlight and glare. It offers excellent views of the rugged Mediterranean coastline and the deep valleys of central France.
