SVQ β GVA
Which side of the plane to sit from Sevilla Airport (Sevilla) to Geneva Cointrin International Airport (Geneva)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular grand finale with views of the French Alps and the iconic Mont Blanc, alongside a superior perspective of Lake Geneva during the final approach.
Sierra Morena
Rugged mountain range separating Andalusia from the central plains shortly after departure.
Ebro River Valley
The wide, fertile valley of the Ebro River as the flight moves toward the border.
Aneto & Eastern Pyrenees
Views of the highest peaks in the Pyrenees range, often snow-capped well into the summer.
The French Alps
Breathtaking panoramic views of the high Alps as the aircraft enters the Haute-Savoie region.
Mont Blanc
The highest peak in Western Europe is frequently visible in the distance during the descent into GVA.
Lake Geneva (Lac LΓ©man)
Stunning views of the crescent-shaped lake and the Jet d'Eau fountain during the final approach.
Book a window seat on the right (Seat K/F depending on aircraft) to maximize Alpine views. During the final descent, the sun is often behind you in the afternoon, providing perfect lighting for photography of Mont Blanc and the lake. Morning flights are also excellent for crisp mountain shadows.
Sevilla Cityscape
Aerial view of the Guadalquivir River and the historic center of Sevilla immediately after takeoff.
La Meseta Central
The high plateau of central Spain, featuring vast agricultural fields and the rugged terrain of Castilla-La Mancha.
Central Pyrenees
Dramatic crossing of the mountain border between Spain and France, showcasing deep valleys and jagged peaks.
Massif Central
The ancient volcanic region of southern France, characterized by rounded peaks and lush green plateaus.
Jura Mountains
Rolling limestone ridges visible during the descent into the Geneva basin.
Sit in front of the wing for unobstructed views of the Spanish Meseta. If the flight arrives from the north, you may get a brief glimpse of the city of Geneva before touchdown, but the right side remains more consistent for landmarks.
