Which side of the plane to sit from Weeze Airport (Weeze) to Almería International Airport (Almeria)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the dramatic crossing of the Pyrenees and the unique, shimmering 'Sea of Plastic' greenhouses upon the descent into Almería.
The Ardennes
Rolling hills and thick forest canopies covering the border regions of Belgium, Luxembourg, and France.
Parisian Basin
The sprawling urban landscape and agricultural patches surrounding the greater Paris region to the west.
Central Pyrénées
A spectacular direct crossing of the high mountain range, featuring jagged peaks and deep glacial valleys.
La Mancha Plains
The iconic, arid red-earth landscapes of central Spain, dotted with small rural towns and wind farms.
Sea of Plastic
The mesmerizing, shimmering white landscape of the El Ejido greenhouses, visible for miles during the descent.
Choose the right side for sunset flights to witness the golden hour over the Spanish Meseta. The highlight is the 'Sea of Plastic' near Almería; the reflection of the sun off the greenhouse roofs creates a unique metallic glow that is best viewed from this side.
Lower Rhine Valley
Aerial views of the winding Rhine River and the industrial landscape of the Ruhr region shortly after takeoff.
Distant Alps
On very clear days, the snow-capped peaks of the French and Swiss Alps are visible on the far eastern horizon.
Costa Blanca
The turquoise waters and dense coastal developments of Benidorm and Alicante as the flight follows the Spanish coastline.
Sierra Nevada
Breathtaking views of the Mulhacén peak, the highest point in mainland Spain, often covered in snow until early summer.
Cabo de Gata
The volcanic rock formations and hidden coves of the Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park during the final approach.
Sit on the left for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise over the Mediterranean without direct glare. This side provides the best views of the rugged Andalusian coastline and the dramatic rise of the Sierra Nevada mountains during the descent.
