Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers superior views of the dramatic Cantabrian coastline upon departure, a distant perspective of the Pyrenees, and the most iconic approach views of the Serra de Tramuntana mountains and the Bay of Palma.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Cantabrian Coastline

Dramatic views of the Asturian cliffs and the beaches of Gijón immediately after takeoff from OVD.

🏔️

Picos de Europa

Distant but majestic limestone peaks of Spain's first National Park visible to the southeast during the climb.

💧

Ebro River Valley

The winding path of Spain's most voluminous river cutting through the arid landscape of Aragon.

🏖️

Costa del Azahar

The point where the aircraft leaves the mainland, offering views of the Mediterranean coastline near Castellón.

⛰️

Serra de Tramuntana

Mallorca's UNESCO World Heritage mountain range becomes clearly visible as you approach the island from the northwest.

Sit in the front half of the cabin for unobstructed views of the Picos de Europa. Afternoon flights are ideal on this side as the sun will be behind the aircraft, illuminating the Mallorcan coastline and the Tramuntana mountains in warm, golden light.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🛶

Western Asturias Coast

Rugged inlets and the colorful fishing villages near Cudillero visible if the flight departs towards the west.

🚜

The Meseta Plains

The vast, high-altitude central plateau of Spain, showing a patchwork of agricultural fields and ancient villages.

🌋

Sistema Ibérico

Rugged, reddish mountain terrain and deep canyons as the flight crosses towards the Mediterranean coast.

⛪

Palma Cathedral

On final approach to Runway 06L, you can often spot the massive Gothic 'La Seu' cathedral standing over the harbor.

🚤

Port of Palma

Views of the luxury yachts and cruise ships docked in the bay just before touchdown.

The right side is excellent for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the southern sun. Keep your camera ready during the final 10 minutes of the flight for a chance to see the historic center of Palma and the cathedral during the descent.
