Which side of the plane to sit from Santiago de Compostela Airport (Santiago) to Frankfurt-Hahn Airport (Hahn)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers an exceptional combination of the Picos de Europa mountain range, the distant silhouette of the Pyrenees, and the intricate vineyard-covered loops of the Moselle Valley during the final approach into Hahn.

Picos de Europa
Jagged limestone peaks of Northern Spain rising sharply against the horizon shortly after departure.
Pyrenees Horizon
On clear days, the high peaks of the Pyrenees are visible to the southeast as you cross the French border.
Bordeaux & Vineyards
The geometric patterns of world-famous vineyards surrounding the Garonne river in Southwest France.
Loire Valley Châteaux
Glimpses of historic French estates and winding river bends through the heart of the 'Garden of France'.
Moselle River Loops
Stunning, steep-sided river bends and terraced vineyards as the plane descends toward Frankfurt-Hahn.
The right side is the clear winner for geographic variety. For the best experience, choose a morning flight when the sun illuminates the Spanish mountains. The final 15 minutes of the flight are crucial; the descent over the Moselle river offers some of the best vineyard views in Europe.

Rías Altas
Dramatic views of the rugged Galician coastline and deep estuaries immediately after takeoff from Santiago.
Arcachon Bay
The massive Dune du Pilat, the tallest sand dune in Europe, visible on the French coast across the Bay of Biscay.
Loire Estuary
The meeting point of France's longest river and the Atlantic Ocean near the city of Saint-Nazaire.
Luxembourg City
Aerial perspective of the deep gorges and historic fortifications of the city just before crossing into Germany.
Sit on the left for coastal views of the Bay of Biscay. This side is best for late afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the setting sun, which will be behind the aircraft or on the right side. Keep an eye out for the distinctive circular shape of the Arcachon basin.
