Which side of the plane to sit from Palma De Mallorca Airport (Palma de Mallorca) to Helsinki Vantaa Airport (Helsinki)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular vantage point for the snow-capped Alps during the mid-portion of the flight and a breathtaking view of the Finnish archipelago during the descent into Helsinki.
Search flights from PMI to HEL
Balearic Sea
Crystal clear turquoise waters and the distant silhouette of Menorca shortly after departure.
Swiss and French Alps
Panoramic views of the high-altitude peaks and glaciers of the European Alps appearing to the east.
Berlin Metropolitan Area
The sprawling urban layout of Germany's capital city can often be identified during clear transits.
Finnish Archipelago
Thousands of tiny, forested islands dotting the Baltic Sea as the plane begins its final approach to Vantaa.
The right side is superior for the arrival phase, as the approach into HEL often patterns over the stunning Archipelago Sea. For the best Alpine views, ensure your flight is during daylight hours; early morning flights will see the mountains bathed in a warm glow. In winter, the frozen Baltic Sea creates unique white patterns visible from this side.

Serra de Tramuntana
Dramatic views of Mallorca's rugged northern mountain range immediately after takeoff from Palma.
Burgundy Region
The geometric patterns of French vineyards and rolling hills of the Côte-d'Or as you transit French airspace.
Rhine-Main Area
Dense urban landscapes and the winding Rhine river near Frankfurt and central Germany.
Swedish Coastline
Views of the Swedish islands of Öland and Gotland stretching across the Baltic Sea in the distance.
Sit on the left if you are flying in the late afternoon to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side provides excellent views of the Spanish coastline upon departure and the agricultural heartlands of Central Europe. Look out for the massive wind farms located in the Baltic Sea near the German and Danish coasts.
