Which side of the plane to sit from Palma De Mallorca Airport (Palma de Mallorca) to Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas Airport (Madrid)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the dramatic Serra de Tramuntana mountains upon departure from Mallorca, followed by a clear view of the Valencia coastline and the rugged Serranía de Cuenca interior.
Serra de Tramuntana
Spectacular views of the UNESCO World Heritage limestone mountain range running along Mallorca's northwest coast.
Gulf of Valencia
The scenic transition from the Mediterranean Sea to the long sandy stretches of the Spanish mainland coast.
Valencia City
Visuals of the City of Arts and Sciences and the extensive port facilities as the flight enters mainland airspace.
Serranía de Cuenca
Look down at the dramatic limestone formations and deep river gorges of the interior mountain ranges.
Barajas Terminal 4
The iconic yellow-pillared roof and wave-like architecture of Madrid's T4 terminal during the landing sequence.
The right side is best for morning flights as the sun illuminates the mountains of Mallorca. It also provides the best chance to see the city of Valencia clearly as most flight paths cross directly over or slightly south of the city.
Bay of Palma
Aerial perspective of the turquoise waters and the majestic Palma Cathedral during the initial climb.
Balearic Horizon
Distant views of the islands of Ibiza and Formentera visible to the south while crossing the Mediterranean.
Castile Plains
The vast, golden-hued agricultural landscapes of the Spanish Meseta as you approach central Spain.
Madrid Skyline
A glimpse of the Cuatro Torres Business Area and the city's dense urban sprawl during the final approach.
Sit on the left for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Iberian Peninsula. Keep your camera ready immediately after takeoff from PMI for a view of the harbor and the Almudaina Palace.
