Our Recommendation
8.4

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the French Atlantic coastline, the Bay of Biscay, and provides the most iconic view of Mount Teide during the final approach into Tenerife South.

Right Side Highlights
8.4
🗼

Paris Distant View

On clear days, the sprawl of the French capital can be seen to the west shortly after reaching cruise altitude.

🌊

Bay of Biscay

The dramatic transition from the French coast to the deep blue of the Atlantic Ocean.

🍷

Bordeaux Vineyards

The famous wine regions of southwestern France and the Garonne river delta.

🏖️

Lanzarote & Fuerteventura

Volcanic landscapes and turquoise waters of the eastern Canary Islands visible from afar.

🌋

Mount Teide

Spain's highest peak and the center of Tenerife, offering a spectacular sight as the aircraft circles for landing.

The right side is highly recommended for the spectacular approach to Tenerife South, as the aircraft typically passes north of the island, giving you a perfect view of Mount Teide. For afternoon flights, be aware of the sun's glare, but the sunset views over the Atlantic are often breathtaking.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🌲

Ardennes Forest

Dense green rolling hills across the Belgian and French border visible shortly after takeoff.

🏔️

Pyrenees Mountains

Distances views of the snow-capped peaks separating France and Spain.

🏜️

Spanish Meseta

The vast, high-altitude plateau of central Spain, characterized by golden fields and rugged terrain.

🏛️

Seville

The historic Andalusian capital and the winding Guadalquivir River visible as you head toward the Atlantic.

🏝️

Gran Canaria

The neighboring island of Tenerife often visible during the final descent from the left windows.

Sit here if you prefer views of the Spanish interior and want to avoid the direct afternoon sun during the southbound journey. This side is better for spotting the neighboring Canary Islands like Gran Canaria as you descend into TFS.
