Pyrenees Range
Snow-capped peaks and deep valleys visible shortly after departure from Reus.
Bay of Biscay
Expansive views of the French western coastline as the flight path moves north.
Loire Valley
The winding Loire River and lush greenery of central France.
Snowdonia National Park
Dramatic mountain scenery of North Wales during the transition into UK airspace.
Lough Neagh

Position yourself on the left for the most dramatic transition over the Pyrenees. Morning flights provide the best lighting for these peaks as the sun rises in the east. On the approach to Belfast, keep your camera ready for the vast expanse of Lough Neagh which dominates the view during the final minutes of flight if landing on Runway 07.

The right side is ideal for coastal views of Spain immediately after departure. It also offers a better chance to spot the Isle of Man during the cruise phase over the Irish Sea. Afternoon flights are particularly scenic on this side as the sun moves to the west, casting long shadows over the French and English landscapes.
