Alcudia & Pollença Bays
Breathtaking views of Mallorca's northern turquoise bays and the Formentor peninsula.

A frequent sight of the Eixample district grid and the Sagrada Familia from high altitude.
The High Pyrenees
Direct views over the snow-capped summits and deep valleys of the mountain range.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic plateaus and craters of central France visible in clear weather.
Thames Estuary
The iconic winding mouth of the Thames and the Essex coastline during the arrival phase.

The left side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid the direct southern sun. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes after takeoff to catch the Ebro Delta on the Spanish mainland. During the descent into Stansted, this side often sees the sunset over the English countryside.
