Our Recommendation
8.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior visual experience, featuring the snow-capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada, the volcanic coastline of Cabo de Gata, and a stunning aerial approach over the Bay of Palma.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
🏔️

Sierra Nevada

Spectacular views of mainland Spain's highest peaks, including Mulhacén, often covered in snow until early summer.

🌵

Cabo de Gata-Níjar

The stark, volcanic landscapes and turquoise coves of Almería's wild coastline.

🌊

Mediterranean Crossing

Vast expanses of deep blue water transitioning into the shallow turquoise reefs surrounding the Balearic archipelago.

⛪

Palma Cathedral

A breathtaking view of the massive 'La Seu' Gothic cathedral and the harbor during the final approach into PMI.

Request a window seat on the right for the best chance to see the Sierra Nevada peaks. On final approach, keep your camera ready for the Bay of Palma; the aircraft usually banks in a way that provides a perfect framing of the city and its historic landmarks.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Sierra Morena

Dense Mediterranean forests and rolling hills stretching across the northern horizon of Andalusia.

🏞️

Sierras de Cazorla

The rugged karst topography of Spain's largest protected natural area and the headwaters of the Guadalquivir.

🏔️

Serra de Tramuntana

The dramatic UNESCO-listed limestone mountain range that forms the backbone of northern Mallorca.

Sit ahead of the wing to capture the best views of the Tramuntana mountains during the descent. Morning flights provide excellent side-lighting on the Sierra Morena mountains shortly after takeoff.
