Which side of the plane to sit from Palma De Mallorca Airport (Palma de Mallorca) to Málaga Airport (Malaga)?
Left Side of the Plane
The Left Side is superior for this route as it offers the best views of the Palma harbor upon departure and the dramatic, often snow-capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada mountains during the approach to Andalusia.
Bay of Palma
Aerial views of the Port of Palma, the historic Cathedral (La Seu), and the Bellver Castle immediately after takeoff.
Alboran Sea
A vast expanse of the Mediterranean where the Atlantic and Mediterranean waters begin to mix.
Sierra Nevada
Panoramic views of the Mulhacén, the highest peak in mainland Spain, often covered in snow during winter and spring.
Costa del Sol East
The rugged coastline of Nerja and the Axarquía region as the plane begins its descent.
Málaga Port
Clear views of the Muelle Uno and the industrial port area just before touchdown.
Choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat distortion. Morning flights are ideal to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Sierra Nevada mountains. Keep a lookout approximately 40 minutes into the flight for the mainland coast.
Serra de Tramuntana
A distant look at the UNESCO World Heritage mountain range on the northwest coast of Mallorca.
Murcian Coastline
Views of the rugged cliffs and hidden coves near Cartagena and the Golfo de Mazarrón.
Andalusian Interior
The characteristic landscape of rolling hills and endless olive groves as you cross into the province of Granada.
Málaga City Center
Excellent views of the Málaga Cathedral, the Alcazaba fortress, and the Gibralfaro Castle during final approach.
Montes de Málaga
The pine-covered mountain range that serves as the green lungs of the city.
The right side is excellent for evening flights as you may witness a sunset over the Spanish mainland. During the final approach into AGP (usually Runway 13), this side provides the most direct view of the city center and the historic landmarks.
