Which side of the plane to sit from Nantes Atlantique Airport (Nantes) to Sevilla Airport (Sevilla)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior mix of the French Atlantic coastline, the dramatic crossing of the Spanish mountain ranges, and a clearer view of Seville's historic center upon approach.
Nantes & Loire Estuary
Panoramic view of the city of Nantes and the winding Loire River moving toward the coast.
Vendée Coastline
Striking views of the French shoreline, including the salt marshes and the Île de Ré bridge.
Western Pyrenees
Visuals of the rugged mountain transition where France meets the Iberian Peninsula.
Castilian Meseta
The vast, high-altitude plateau of central Spain characterized by golden fields and ancient villages.
Seville Old Town
Aerial perspective of the Giralda tower and the massive Cathedral during the final descent.
Choose the left side for morning departures to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Spanish landscape. During the descent into Seville, this side often provides the best angle for spotting the city's historic monuments depending on the wind direction.
Saint-Nazaire Bridge
A birds-eye view of the massive cable-stayed bridge spanning the mouth of the Loire.
Bay of Biscay
Expansive views of the deep Atlantic blue and frequent sightings of large shipping vessels.
Picos de Europa
Jagged limestone peaks of the Cantabrian Mountains visible as you enter Spanish airspace.
Extremadura Reservoirs
Large, intricate blue water systems like the Embalse de Alcántara contrasting with the dry land.
Guadalquivir Delta
The winding river and the vast wetlands of Doñana National Park near the end of the journey.
The right side is ideal for afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over the Atlantic Ocean. Keep an eye out for the dramatic contrast between the lush green northern Spanish coast and the arid plains of the south.
