Which side of the plane to sit from Asturias Airport (Aviles) to Tenerife South Airport (Tenerife)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a breathtaking departure over the Asturias coastline and the iconic view of Mount Teide upon arrival in Tenerife.
Costa Verde
Immediate views of the lush, green cliffs and hidden beaches of the Asturias coastline after takeoff.
Portuguese Borderlands
The flight path often tracks along the western edge of the Iberian Peninsula with glimpses of the Atlantic.
Mount Teide
The primary highlight; the massive volcanic peak of Tenerife dominates the horizon during the approach.
La Gomera
As the plane aligns for landing at TFS, the round, misty island of La Gomera is often visible to the west.
The right side is superior for the approach into Tenerife South, as the flight path typically passes the north of the island, offering a spectacular view of Mount Teide's peak. For afternoon flights, this side also enjoys the best sunset views over the Atlantic. Choose a seat ahead of the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block your view of the volcano.
Picos de Europa
Shorty after takeoff, look east to see the jagged limestone peaks of Spain's first National Park.
Castilian Meseta
Vast stretches of high-altitude plains and golden agricultural fields in central Spain.
Seville and the Guadalquivir
Potential views of the winding river and the sprawling capital of Andalusia as you head south.
Gran Canaria View
During the final descent into Tenerife South, the neighboring island is often visible across the water.
Sit on the left for morning flights to see the sunrise over the mountains. It also provides the best perspective of the Spanish interior's changing colors from green to ochre. During the approach to TFS, this side usually faces the open ocean and the silhouette of Gran Canaria.
