Which side of the plane to sit from Stavanger Airport Sola (Stavanger) to Málaga Airport (Malaga)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior panoramic experience, featuring the dramatic transition from the North Sea to the Atlantic-influenced French coastline, a spectacular crossing of the Western Pyrenees, and the chance to spot the Strait of Gibraltar on the final descent.

North Sea Horizon
Clear views of the open sea and occasional offshore wind farms as you leave Norwegian airspace.
Bay of Biscay
As you cross into France, witness the sweeping curves of the Atlantic coastline and the sandy beaches of Les Landes.
Western Pyrenees
The descent of the mountain range toward the Atlantic provides a lush, green contrast to the arid plains ahead.
Madrid Outskirts
Depending on the specific airway, you may spot the sprawling suburbs and unique geography surrounding the Spanish capital.
Costa del Sol
A stunning view of the Mediterranean coastline as the plane banks for its final approach into Malaga.
Strait of Gibraltar
On clear days, if the flight path trends slightly west, the Rock of Gibraltar and the coast of Africa are visible in the distance.
For afternoon and evening flights, the right side captures the golden hour over the Spanish landscape. If the wind requires a southern approach (Runway 31), the right side offers an incredible view of the Mediterranean and the shoreline. Use a polarising filter for photos to cut through the atmospheric haze common over the Iberian Peninsula.

Rogaland Archipelago
Upon departure from Sola, enjoy the intricate network of islands and fjords along the Norwegian coastline.
High Pyrenees
Glance out mid-flight to see the rugged, snow-dusted peaks of the central Pyrenees dividing France and Spain.
Castilian Plateau
Observe the vast, golden-hued landscapes of the Spanish Meseta, dotted with ancient towns and irrigation patterns.
Sierra Nevada
On the descent, the massive peaks of the Sierra Nevada, the highest in mainland Spain, dominate the eastern horizon.
Malaga City Center
If landing from the north, you get a clear view of the Alcazaba fortress and the cathedral before touchdown.
The left side is ideal for morning flights to see the sunrise over the North Sea and to avoid direct afternoon glare. It provides the best view of the Sierra Nevada mountains during the descent into Malaga. Sit behind the wing to ensure your view of the Spanish interior isn't obstructed.
