Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side is the preferred choice for this route, offering a majestic perspective of the Alps and Pyrenees mountain ranges followed by a spectacular aerial entry into Lisbon over the Tagus River.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🏰

Prague Cityscape

Immediate views of the Czech capital's historic spires and the Vltava River winding through the city.

🏔️

Alpine Vistas

Distant but clear views of the Swiss and French Alps peaks lining the southern horizon during the mid-flight cruise.

⛰️

Pyrenees Crossing

A dramatic transit over the high peaks of the Pyrenees as the flight enters Spanish airspace.

🌾

Castilian Plateau

The unique textures and earthy tones of the Spanish Meseta stretching toward the horizon.

🌉

Vasco da Gama Bridge

A low-altitude view of Europe's longest bridge during the final approach over the Tagus Estuary.

Opt for the left side for the best mountain views. When landing on the typical Runway 03, the left side offers the most iconic views of Lisbon's modern riverside architecture. On morning flights, the sun is positioned to the south, providing excellent lighting for photos of the landscape to the north of the flight path.

Right Side Highlights
7.6
💧

Lake Constance

The shimmering expanse of the Bodensee situated at the intersection of Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.

🌊

Bay of Biscay

The deep blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean meeting the rugged coastlines of western France and northern Spain.

⛰️

Picos de Europa

The jagged limestone peaks of northern Spain rising sharply above the Cantabrian Sea.

🏰

Sintra Palaces

The fairytale silhouettes of Pena Palace and the Moorish Castle nestled in the green Sintra mountains.

🌊

Cascais Coastline

The beautiful beaches and rocky cliffs of the Estoril coast just minutes before touchdown.

The right side is perfect for those who enjoy coastal scenery. During the descent, keep your eyes peeled for Sintra's distinctive hills. This side generally experiences less direct sunlight on south-west bound afternoon flights, making it easier to see out the window without glare.
