SDR β SVQ
Which side of the plane to sit from Santander Airport (Santander) to Sevilla Airport (Sevilla)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a more consistent view of the varied Spanish landscape, from the initial departure over the emerald coast to the vast, colorful geometric patterns of the Castilian Meseta and the rugged transition into Andalusia.
Costa Verde
The rugged western coastline of Cantabria, featuring hidden coves and dramatic cliffs meeting the Atlantic.
Cantabrian Range
A direct flyover of the green peaks and deep valleys that separate the coast from the Spanish interior.
The Meseta
The iconic high plateau of Spain, showing a patchwork of gold, green, and ochre fields depending on the season.
Salamanca
Glimpses of the historic 'Golden City' and the Tormes River as the flight proceeds south.
Sierra Morena
The dark, forested hills that mark the geological boundary between the central plateau and the Andalusian basin.
Choose the right side for sunset flights to witness the spectacular light across the Extremaduran plains. Keep an eye out for the transition from the dry northern plateau to the more lush, olive-tree-dotted landscapes of Andalusia.
Santander Bay
Aerial view of the city, the Magdalena Peninsula, and the bustling port area shortly after takeoff.
Picos de Europa
The dramatic limestone massifs of the Picos de Europa are visible to the southeast in the early stages of flight.
Valladolid
The administrative capital of Castile and LeΓ³n, recognizable by its urban sprawl amidst the agricultural plains.
Sistema Central
The silhouettes of the Sierra de Guadarrama mountains visible in the distance toward the east.
Seville City
During the final approach into SVQ, the Giralda tower and the vast cathedral are often visible as the plane banks over the city.
Sit on the left for morning flights to see the Picos de Europa illuminated by the sun. This side is also generally better for viewing the dense urban center of Seville if the plane approaches from the north using Runway 27.
