Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior mix of rugged Atlantic coastlines, the vast Bay of Biscay, and the intricate water networks of the Dutch Delta during the descent into Weeze.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🌊

Costa Verde

Dramatic aerial views of the rugged Portuguese Atlantic cliffs and sandy beaches shortly after takeoff.

🚢

Bay of Biscay

A vast expanse of deep blue water where you can often spot large cargo ships on international maritime routes.

🏖️

Brittany Peninsula

The jagged and rocky coastline of western France with its many small offshore islands.

🏗️

Port of Rotterdam

One of the world's largest industrial ports, featuring massive container terminals and ships during the descent.

💧

Zeeland Delta

Stunning geometric patterns of the Dutch dams, bridges, and reclaimed polders as the flight enters Dutch airspace.

Choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. On evening flights, this side provides spectacular sunset views over the Atlantic and the English Channel. Keep your camera ready as you pass the Dutch coast for the most unique geographic patterns.

Right Side Highlights
6.5
⛰️

Peneda-Gerês

The lush, mountainous terrain of Portugal's only National Park visible in the first 15 minutes of flight.

🏰

Loire Valley

The green expanses of central France, occasionally revealing the glint of the Loire River and historic towns.

🏙️

Brussels Skyline

The dense urban landscape and landmarks of the Belgian capital are often visible from a distance.

🛤️

Rhine-Ruhr Border

The transition from the agricultural plains of the Netherlands to the industrial heartland of Germany.

🛶

Maas River

The winding silver thread of the Maas river marking the final approach toward the German border.

Look out early for the snow-capped Picos de Europa in the distance if taking a more inland route. This side is better for spotting inland European cities during the day. In winter, the landscape of Northern France and Belgium can offer beautiful frost-covered patterns.
