Which side of the plane to sit from Asturias Airport (Aviles) to Valencia Airport (Valencia)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior vantage point for the dramatic Picos de Europa mountains shortly after takeoff and provides the most scenic views of the Mediterranean coastline and Albufera Natural Park during the final approach into Valencia.
Search flights from OVD to VLC
Picos de Europa
Spectacular limestone peaks and deep valleys of the Cantabrian range visible minutes after departure from OVD.
Tierra de Campos
The vast geometric patterns of the Castilian plateau, showcasing a palette of gold and green agriculture.
Serranía de Cuenca
The rugged karst landscapes and dense forests of the northern Iberian System.
Valencian Coastline
The sparkling blue Mediterranean waters as the aircraft maneuvers for landing.
Albufera Lake
Spain's largest lagoon and its surrounding rice paddies located just south of Valencia city.
Opt for a morning flight to ensure the sun illuminates the Picos de Europa from the side rather than creating glare. On the approach to VLC, the left side typically gets a clear view of the Port of Valencia and the City of Arts and Sciences if the wind requires a northern approach over the sea.
