Which side of the plane to sit from San Javier Airport (Murcia) to Eindhoven Airport (Eindhoven)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular departure over the Mar Menor and a long sweep of the Mediterranean coastline, followed by views of the Rhône Valley and distant glimpses of the Alps.
Mar Menor
A stunning aerial view of Europe's largest saltwater lagoon and the narrow La Manga strip immediately after takeoff.
Costa Blanca
Detailed views of the Mediterranean coastline, including the high-rise skyline of Benidorm.
Valencia
Look for the futuristic City of Arts and Sciences and the busy port as you fly north.
The Alps
While distant, the towering, snow-covered French Alps are often visible to the east while over central France.
Rhône River
The winding path of the Rhône as it carves through the valleys of southeastern France.
Ardennes Forest
Dense, rolling green hills and deep valleys as the flight crosses from France into Belgium.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the direct sun. It provides the best coastal views during the first 30 minutes of the flight. Keep your camera ready immediately after takeoff from MJV to capture the unique geography of the Mar Menor lagoon.
Sierra Espuña
The rugged, pine-covered mountain ranges of the Murcia interior shortly after takeoff.
Ebro River Valley
The wide, fertile basin of Spain's most voluminous river as you head toward the border.
The Pyrenees
Dramatic views of the high granite peaks and snow-capped summits separating Spain and France.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic landscape of central France, featuring the distinctive Chaîne des Puys.
Paris Silhouette
On clear days, the distant skyline of Paris, including the Eiffel Tower, may be visible to the west.
Dutch Polders
The iconic geometric patterns of reclaimed land and canals as you descend into the Netherlands.
Sit on the left for the best views of the Pyrenees' highest peaks. During evening flights, this side will experience the sunset, which can be beautiful but may cause significant glare for photography.
