Which side of the plane to sit from Minsk National Airport (Minsk 2) to Barcelona International Airport (Barcelona)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the Alpine massifs, the rugged terrain of southern France, and the dramatic approach over the Montserrat mountains into Catalonia.
Bohemian Forest
The dense green canopy of the Sumava mountains on the border of Czechia and Germany.
The Swiss Alps
Dramatic, snow-capped panoramas of the northern Alpine range and glacial valleys.
Lyon
The confluence of the Rhône and Saône rivers in the heart of France's third-largest city.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic highlands and rugged plateaus of south-central France.
Montserrat
The uniquely shaped, jagged serrated mountain range just west of Barcelona during arrival.
Request a seat forward of the wing to get unobstructed photos of the Alps. This side is particularly scenic during sunset flights, as the Pyrenees and the French countryside are bathed in gold. When approaching Barcelona from the north, keep your eyes peeled for the Montserrat monastery perched on the cliffs.
Warsaw Cityscape
Aerial views of the Vistula River and the modern skyline of the Polish capital.
High Tatras
Distant glimpses of the jagged granite peaks marking the border between Poland and Slovakia.
Rhône Valley
Lush vineyards and the winding Rhône River as the flight traverses southeastern France.
Mediterranean Horizon
The deep blue expanse of the Balearic Sea as the aircraft begins its descent toward the coast.
Barcelona Eixample
The famous octagonal city blocks and the Sagrada Família visible during the final approach.
The left side is preferable for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. During the final approach into BCN, this side typically offers a better view of the Mediterranean coastline and the Port of Barcelona. Look for the distinctive W Hotel (The Sail) near the beach.
