Rabat Skyline
Excellent views of the Hassan Tower and the Bou Regreg river immediately after takeoff from RBA.
Sierra Nevada
Visuals of mainland Spain's highest peaks, often covered in snow even during warmer months.
Madrid Metropolis
The flight path often passes near Madrid, offering a clear view of the city's urban sprawl and skyscrapers.
Loire Valley
Spot the winding Loire River and its famous historic chateaux scattered throughout the valley.
Paris Landmarks
During the descent into BVA, the Eiffel Tower and the Sacré-Cœur are frequently visible in the distance to the east.
The right side is preferred for morning flights to avoid the harsh western sun glare. Keep your camera ready about 20-30 minutes before landing, as this side provides the best chance to spot the Parisian skyline from a distance before the plane turns toward Beauvais.

Atlantic Horizon
Initial views of the Moroccan coastline and the vast Atlantic Ocean as you head north.
Strait of Gibraltar
A glimpse of the narrow passage where Africa nearly meets Europe, looking west toward the open sea.
Extremadura Plateau
The rugged, arid landscapes of western Spain, characterized by deep ochre tones and rocky outcrops.
Bay of Biscay
Dramatic views of the French southwestern coastline and the silver-blue waters of the Atlantic.
Normandy Orchards
The final descent reveals the lush, green patchwork of the Oise region and Normandy fields.
Sit on the left for evening flights to witness the sunset over the Atlantic Ocean. This side is also better for observing the dramatic weather shifts as you move from the Mediterranean climate to the temperate Atlantic air of Northern France.
