NUE → IBZ
Which side of the plane to sit from Nuremberg Airport (Nuernberg) to Ibiza Airport (Ibiza)?
Right Side of the Plane
While both sides offer stunning views of the Alps, the Right Side is preferred for its superior perspective of the French coastline and the iconic approach into Ibiza, often passing the legendary Es Vedra rock formation.

Black Forest
Dense evergreen forests and rolling hills of southwestern Germany shortly after takeoff.
Lake Constance

The ancient volcanic plateau and rugged highlands of south-central France.

Views of the distant Spanish mainland and the Balearic Sea.
Es Vedra
The mythical and majestic limestone rock rising from the sea near the Ibiza coast.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. The highlight is the approach into Ibiza; aircraft often track along the west coast, providing the best views of the island's famous hidden coves and the mysterious Es Vedra rock. Sit behind the wing for unobstructed ground views.

The left side is exceptional for morning flights as the sun illuminates the Alpine peaks to the south. During the descent, keep your camera ready for the turquoise waters around Formentera. If the flight path takes a more easterly route, you might catch a glimpse of the French Riviera in the distance.
