Which side of the plane to sit from Newcastle Airport (Newcastle) to Palma De Mallorca Airport (Palma de Mallorca)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side is the definitive choice for this route, primarily for the iconic 'money shot' of the Palma Cathedral and the Bay of Palma during the final approach phase into Mallorca.

French Vineyards
Fly over the world-famous wine regions of Bordeaux and Aquitaine in southwest France.
Central Pyrenees
Stunning vistas of the highest snow-capped peaks of the Pyrenees as you cross into Spanish airspace.
Bay of Palma
A wide-angle view of the Mediterranean as the plane banks over the water to align with the runway.
Palma Cathedral
The world-famous 'La Seu' Gothic cathedral is perfectly framed against the city skyline on the final approach.
Palma Harbor
Views of the bustling port filled with luxury yachts and cruise liners just seconds before touchdown.
The right side offers the most cinematic landing experience. To avoid the harshest sun glare while heading south, afternoon flights are preferred for this side. Keep your camera ready as the plane enters the Bay of Palma; the banking turn typically reveals the cathedral and city skyline suddenly and briefly.
