Which side of the plane to sit from Angads Airport (Oujda) to Paris Beauvais Tillé Airport (Beauvais)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers a superior vantage point for the dramatic Spanish coastline, the expansive Mediterranean horizon, and a more direct view of the Paris metropolitan area's landmarks during the northern approach to Beauvais.
Costa del Azahar
The sparkling 'Orange Blossom Coast' of Spain, featuring turquoise waters and coastal developments.
Ebro Delta
The distinctive triangular landform where the Ebro River meets the Mediterranean Sea.
Eastern Pyrenees
Sharp, dramatic ridges of the Pyrenees, often providing a closer look at the high peaks near Andorra.
Massif Central
Views of the ancient volcanic landscape and plateaus of south-central France.
Paris Cityscape
On clear days, the Eiffel Tower and the business district of La Défense are often visible on the horizon during descent.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. It provides the best opportunity to see the Mediterranean coastline of Spain and the French Massif Central. As you approach Beauvais, keep your eyes on the horizon to the south to spot the iconic Parisian skyline, especially beautiful when illuminated at night.
Rif Mountains
Aerial views of the rugged, green-tinged peaks of northern Morocco immediately after takeoff.
Alboran Sea
The westernmost portion of the Mediterranean Sea, where the Atlantic meets the inland waters.
Spanish Meseta
The vast, golden-hued high plateau of central Spain, characterized by rolling hills and ancient villages.
Central Pyrenees
Glaciated peaks and high-altitude lakes marking the natural border between Spain and France.
Loire Valley
Glimpses of the winding Loire River and the dense forests of central France.
Choose the left side for better sunset views if flying in the late afternoon or evening. During the winter months, the snow coverage on the western Pyrenees is particularly striking from this side. Watch for the Garonne River as you cross into France.
