Which side of the plane to sit from Palma De Mallorca Airport (Palma de Mallorca) to Stuttgart Airport (Stuttgart)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior scenic experience, featuring a stunning departure over the northern bays of Mallorca, distant views of the Western Alps, and a spectacular approach over Lake Constance and the Swabian Jura.
Alcudia & Pollença Bays
Turquoise waters and white sandy beaches of northern Mallorca during the initial climb.
Marseille Coastline
Clear views of the French Riviera’s gateway and the dramatic limestone cliffs of the Calanques.
The High Alps
On clear days, the snow-capped peaks of the Western Alps, including Mont Blanc, are visible on the horizon.
Lake Constance (Bodensee)
The enormous blue expanse of central Europe's third-largest lake bordering Germany and Switzerland.
Swabian Jura
The iconic 'Alb' plateau with its steep escarpments and scattered medieval castle ruins near Stuttgart.
The right side is highly recommended for the descent. Look out approximately 20-30 minutes before landing to see Lake Constance. Afternoon flights are spectacular on this side as the sun illuminates the Alpine peaks to the south.
Serra de Tramuntana
The rugged limestone mountain range along Mallorca's northwest coast visible immediately after departure.
Barcelona & Catalan Coast
Distant views of the Barcelona skyline and the Mediterranean coastline as the plane heads north.
Camargue Wetlands
The unique salt pans and marshy landscapes of the Rhône Delta in southern France.
Black Forest
Dense, dark evergreen canopies of the Schwarzwald region as you cross into German airspace.
Sit on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side is best for viewing the rugged interior of France and the dense forests of Baden-Württemberg during the final descent.
