RAK β CPH
Which side of the plane to sit from Menara Airport (Marrakech) to Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (Copenhagen)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a superior vantage point for the dramatic Sierra Nevada mountains in Spain, the core of the Pyrenees, and the iconic Oresund Bridge during the final descent into Copenhagen.
Sierra Nevada
The highest peaks of mainland Spain, often snow-capped, providing a stark contrast to the Andalusian plains.
The Pyrenees
A breathtaking crossing over the high mountain range separating the Iberian Peninsula from France.
Loire Valley
Aerial views of the winding Loire River and the historical chateaus of central France.
Oresund Bridge
The massive bridge-tunnel system connecting Copenhagen and MalmΓΆ, best seen just minutes before touchdown.
Copenhagen Harbor
A detailed look at the industrial and residential waterfront of the Danish capital during the final approach.
Sit on the right for the best morning light across Europe. During the descent into CPH, keep your camera ready for the Oresund Bridge; if the plane lands from the east, you will have a perfect view of the engineering marvel and the Swedish coast.
Atlantic Coastline
Expansive views of the North Atlantic Ocean and the rugged western coast of the Iberian Peninsula.
Lisbon & Tagus River
On clear days, the mouth of the Tagus River and the sprawl of the Portuguese capital are visible to the west.
English Channel
Vistas of the world's busiest shipping lanes as the flight progresses toward Northern Europe.
Jutland Peninsula
The flat, green landscapes of western Denmark appearing as the plane prepares for its eastward turn toward Amager.
Choose this side for evening flights to enjoy spectacular sunset views over the Atlantic Ocean. It is also the better side for spotting the distant lights of London if the route takes a more westerly path over the North Sea.
