NRNOUD

Which side of the plane to sit from Weeze Airport (Weeze) to Angads Airport (Oujda)?

Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the diverse European landscape, including the volcanic Massif Central, the dramatic Pyrenees mountain range, and the scenic Spanish coastline before the final approach into North Africa.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
🌳

Ardennes Forest

The rolling hills and dense woodlands stretching across Belgium and Luxembourg into northern France.

🌋

Massif Central

A stunning look at the extinct volcanoes and deep river gorges of south-central France.

🏔️

The Pyrenees

The jagged, snow-capped peaks forming the natural border between France and Spain, a major route highlight.

🏖️

Costa Blanca

The shimmering blue waters and white sandy beaches along the Spanish Mediterranean coast near Alicante.

🌵

Oriental Plateau

The arid, high-altitude landscape of northeast Morocco characterized by reddish soil and sparse vegetation.

Choose the right side for afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset over the Iberian Peninsula. The Pyrenees crossing is the visual highlight of the trip, usually occurring about two-thirds into the flight; keep your camera ready for the contrast between the green French plains and the arid Spanish terrain.

Left Side Highlights
7.4
🏰

Lower Rhine Valley

Aerial views of the industrial heartland and historic towns along the German-Dutch border shortly after takeoff.

⛰️

Vosges Mountains

The rounded, forested peaks of eastern France visible as the flight heads south toward the Mediterranean.

🌊

Gulf of Lion

The vast expanse of the Mediterranean Sea with views toward the French Riviera and the Balearic Islands.

🏔️

Rif Mountains

The rugged, limestone peaks of northern Morocco that define the landscape during the initial descent.

The left side is preferable for morning flights to avoid direct glare. Look for the distant silhouette of the Alps in the far east during the mid-flight segment over France, and watch for the Algerian border mountains during the final approach into Oujda.
