Which side of the plane to sit from Asturias Airport (Aviles) to Málaga Airport (Malaga)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side of the aircraft offers a more dramatic view of Spain's varied landscapes, featuring the jagged limestone peaks of the Picos de Europa shortly after departure and the snow-capped Sierra Nevada mountains during the approach to the south.
Costa Verde
Vibrant views of the green Asturian coastline and the Bay of Biscay immediately after takeoff.
Picos de Europa
The dramatic limestone massifs and high-altitude lakes of Spain's first National Park visible to the southeast.
Castilian Meseta
The vast, geometric patterns of the high plateau, showcasing seasonal changes in the Spanish wheat fields.
Madrid Skyline
On clear days, the four skyscrapers of the Cuatro Torres Business Area can be seen in the distance to the east.
Sierra Nevada
Stunning views of mainland Spain's highest peaks, including Mulhacén, as the flight enters Andalusia.
Opt for an early morning flight to see the sunrise over the Picos de Europa. During the final 20 minutes of the flight, keep your eyes peeled for the contrast between the dry olive groves of Jaén and the white peaks of the Sierra Nevada.
Avilés Estuary
A bird's-eye view of the industrial port and the Niemeyer Center's modern architecture near the airport.
Somiedo Natural Park
The rugged, less-traveled western ridges of the Cantabrian Mountains known for their deep valleys.
Duero River Basin
The winding path of one of the Iberian Peninsula's major rivers cutting through the plains of Zamora.
Sierra Morena
The dense Mediterranean forests and rolling hills that mark the boundary between the plateau and Andalusia.
Costa del Sol
A panoramic view of the Mediterranean coastline and the hills of the Montes de Málaga during descent.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. On the descent into Málaga, look for the turquoise reservoirs of El Chorro and the steep cliffs of the Caminito del Rey area.
