Which side of the plane to sit from Palma De Mallorca Airport (Palma de Mallorca) to Saarbrücken Airport (Saarbruecken)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior panoramic view of the Western Alps and the transition from the Mediterranean coastline to the rugged European interior.
Bay of Palma
Crystal clear views of the Balearic waters and the cathedral during the initial ascent.
French Riviera
Breathtaking views of the Côte d'Azur and the high-end coastal towns near Marseille.
Western Alps
A magnificent vista of snow-capped peaks, including glimpses of Mont Blanc on clear days.
Lake Geneva
The crescent-shaped lake may be visible to the east depending on the specific air corridor.
Black Forest
The dark, dense canopy of the Schwarzwald appears to the east as you approach the German border.
The right side is essential for Alpine enthusiasts. For the most dramatic lighting on the mountain peaks, book a morning flight. Keep your camera ready about 45 minutes into the flight as you approach the French coast.
Serra de Tramuntana
Dramatic views of Mallorca's UNESCO-listed mountain range immediately after takeoff.
Gulf of Lion
The sweeping arc of the southern French coastline as the flight enters mainland Europe.
Rhône Valley
The famous wine-producing regions of France visible as the plane tracks north.
Vosges Mountains
Dense, rounded forested peaks of eastern France during the descent phase.
Choose the left side for better views of the Mallorcan coastline during departure. This side is also preferable for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun while crossing central France.
