Search flights from PMI to VLC
Serra de Tramuntana
Stunning views of the rugged limestone peaks that form the backbone of Mallorca's northwest coast.
Sa Dragonera
The uninhabited islet shaped like a sleeping dragon visible as the plane leaves the Mallorcan coastline.
Port of Valencia
One of the busiest container ports in the Mediterranean, showcasing massive logistics and cruise terminals.
City of Arts and Sciences
The futuristic white structures designed by Santiago Calatrava are clearly visible during the descent into Valencia.
Valencia City Center
A dense urban sprawl featuring a mix of gothic towers and modern boulevards as you approach the airport.
Sit on the right side for the most iconic views. This side is particularly breathtaking during sunset flights as the Tramuntana mountains glow orange. Since the flight is short (approx. 45-50 minutes), ensure your window is clear early. Request a seat forward of the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block the view of the City of Arts and Sciences during the final banking maneuvers.

Bay of Palma
Aerial view of the crystalline waters and the long sandy stretches of Playa de Palma immediately after takeoff.
Balearic Sea Crossing
A vast expanse of deep Mediterranean blue that characterizes the majority of this short flight path.
Albufera Natural Park
During the final approach into VLC, look for the large freshwater lagoon and surrounding rice paddies south of the city.
The left side is best for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. Keep an eye out for the island of Cabrera in the distance to the south during the first few minutes of flight. When landing from the south, this side provides an excellent view of the agricultural 'Huerta' surrounding Valencia.
