Which side of the plane to sit from Stockholm Skavsta Airport (Stockholm) to Málaga Airport (Malaga)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Pyrenees crossing and avoids the harsh morning sun glare when flying south, providing clearer views of the French and Spanish interiors.
Danish Coastline
A great perspective of the transition from the Baltic to the North Sea over the Jutland peninsula.
French Countryside
Glance across the diverse landscapes of France, including the Loire Valley and potentially distant views of Paris.
The Pyrenees
The absolute highlight of the flight; a jagged, snow-dusted wall of granite marking the border between France and Spain.
Spanish Meseta
The vast, high-altitude plateau of central Spain, characterized by its golden hues and unique agricultural grids.
Strait of Gibraltar
On clear days during the descent, you can often spot the Rock of Gibraltar and the coast of Africa on the horizon.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun will be behind or above the plane, making it much easier to photograph the Pyrenees. Keep your camera ready about 2 hours into the flight for the mountain crossing.
Swedish Archipelago
Stunning views of the Baltic coastline and the countless small islands near Nyköping immediately after takeoff.
Central European Hubs
On clear days, see the dense urban layouts of German cities like Hamburg or Frankfurt depending on the airway.
Sierra Nevada
Dramatic views of mainland Spain's highest peaks, often snow-capped, as you begin the descent into Malaga.
Costa del Sol
A beautiful panorama of the Mediterranean coastline and the deep blue Alboran Sea during the final approach.
Choose this side for morning flights to see the sunrise over the Baltic, but be prepared for glare. During the descent, look out for the white-washed villages (Pueblos Blancos) nestled in the Andalusian hills.
