Which side of the plane to sit from Poznań-Ławica Airport (Poznan) to Girona Airport (Gerona)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior visual experience, featuring a long-distance panorama of the snow-capped Swiss and French Alps, the shimmering Mediterranean coastline, and the stunning descent toward the Costa Brava.
Swiss Alps Panorama
During the mid-flight phase, enjoy sweeping views of the high Alpine peaks and glaciers to the south.
Lake Geneva
Look for the distinctive crescent shape of Western Europe's largest lake if the flight path tracks via Switzerland.
Mediterranean Coast
As the aircraft approaches Spain, the deep blue of the Gulf of Lion and the rugged French coastline come into view.
Costa Brava Shoreline
The final descent offers glimpses of the rocky coves and turquoise waters of the northern Spanish coast.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the afternoon sun. On the approach to Girona, this side provides the best view of the coastline and the Mediterranean Sea before the plane turns inland for landing. Keep your camera ready about 45 minutes before landing for the best Alpine views.
The Black Forest
Fly over the dense, dark evergreen canopies of southwestern Germany's famous mountain range.
Massif Central
View the ancient volcanic plateaus and rugged terrain of south-central France.
Carcassonne
Keep an eye out for the spectacular fortified medieval citadel if the path stays inland over Occitanie.
Pyrenees Mountains
On the approach to Girona, the northern slopes of the Pyrenees provide a dramatic backdrop to the right.
The right side is ideal for sunset flights, offering golden hour lighting over the French countryside. It provides an excellent perspective of the Pyrenees mountain range as the aircraft enters Spanish airspace. During winter months, the snow-covered peaks of the Massif Central are a major highlight for passengers on this side.
