Bay of Santander
A breathtaking view of the Magdalena Peninsula and the Sardinero beaches immediately after lifting off.
Pyrenees Peaks
On clear days, the distant, often snow-capped peaks of the Pyrenees are visible to the east across the plains.
Ebro River Basin
The meandering Ebro river provides a lush green contrast to the surrounding arid terrain of northern Spain.
Costa del Azahar
Detailed views of the coastline near Castellón as the flight transitions from the mainland to the Mediterranean Sea.
Serra de Tramuntana
Mallorca's UNESCO-listed mountain range is visible in spectacular detail as the plane approaches the island from the northwest.
For the most dramatic views of the Mallorcan cliffs, sit on the left. During winter, morning flights offer the best lighting to see the snow on the distant Pyrenees. This side is also best for evening flights to avoid direct glare from the setting sun.

Jagged limestone massifs of the Cantabrian Mountains are visible to the west shortly after departure.
The Spanish Meseta
The vast, patchwork agricultural landscape of the central plateau stretches out towards the horizon.
Serranía de Cuenca
Look for the unique rock formations and deep river canyons of the Iberian System midway through the flight.
Valencia City
A fantastic aerial perspective of the City of Arts and Sciences and the busy industrial port as you leave the coast.
Bay of Palma
During the final descent, this side offers a panoramic view of the Palma Cathedral and the city's yacht-filled harbor.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to keep the sun behind the aircraft, ensuring better photo quality of the Valencia cityscape. In summer, keep an eye out for the small volcanic Columbretes Islands during the sea crossing.
