Mount Teide
Dramatic views of Spain's highest peak and the volcanic craters of Tenerife shortly after takeoff.
Atlantic Horizon
Expansive views of the deep blue Atlantic as the flight tracks north-east toward mainland Europe.
Sistema Central
The snow-capped peaks of Sierra de Gredos and the rugged landscapes of central Spain.
Montserrat
The unique, serrated rock formations of the holy mountain located just outside Barcelona.
Barcelona Cityscape
A perfect view of the Eixample grid, Sagrada Família, and Agbar Tower during the final descent.
Book a window seat forward of the wing for unobstructed views of Teide. For evening flights, this side catches the sunset glow over the Spanish interior. During the 'Llobregat' approach to BCN (Runway 24R), the city is almost always visible on the left.

Costa Dorada

Port of Barcelona
