ORY → AGA
Which side of the plane to sit from Paris-Orly Airport (Paris) to Al Massira Airport (Agadir)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a more diverse geographic experience, offering views of the central French landscapes, the heart of the Pyrenees, and the dramatic peaks of the Moroccan Atlas Mountains during the descent into the Souss Valley.
Loire Valley
Aerial views of the winding river and historic chateaus of central France shortly after departing Orly.
The Pyrenees
A magnificent crossing of the high mountain range that forms the natural border between France and Spain.
Spanish Meseta
The vast, golden high plateau of central Spain stretches out, showcasing the arid beauty of the Iberian interior.
High Atlas Mountains
Iconic views of North Africa's highest peaks, including the snow-capped Jebel Toubkal, as the flight nears Agadir.
Sit on the left for morning flights to have the sun behind you, which enhances the colors of the landscape. This side is particularly spectacular in winter when both the Pyrenees and Atlas peaks are covered in snow, creating a sharp contrast with the desert terrain.
Bay of Biscay
The deep blue expanse where the Atlantic Ocean meets the rugged western coast of France and northern Spain.
Strait of Gibraltar
Spot the narrow gateway between Europe and Africa, with the Pillars of Hercules visible on a clear day.
Moroccan Atlantic Coast
Dramatic views of the coastal cliffs and the city of Casablanca, including the landmark Hassan II Mosque.
Atlantic Sunset
Uninterrupted views of the sun dipping into the ocean horizon on evening flights from Paris.
The right side is ideal for afternoon or evening departures to enjoy the sunset over the Atlantic Ocean. During the final approach into Al Massira Airport, this side often provides a panoramic view of the Agadir coastline and the Oufella ruins on the hill.
