Aerial perspective of the Hohensalzburg Fortress and the historic city center during the initial climb.
Bay of Biscay
The rugged Atlantic coastline where France meets Spain, offering deep blue ocean views against rocky shores.
Picos de Europa
Stunning limestone massifs in Northern Spain that stand out sharply against the Cantabrian landscape.
Timanfaya National Park
Dramatic volcanic craters and lava fields of Lanzarote visible as the plane banks toward Arrecife airport.
The right side is ideal for avoiding harsh midday sun glare. It provides the best 'wow' factor during the approach to Lanzarote, showcasing the island's unique Famara cliffs and volcanic geology. Seat yourself away from the wing for the clearest view of the Canary coastline.
