Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

While the Left Side offers a stunning departure view of Mount Teide, the Right Side provides more consistent interest throughout the flight, including views of other Canary Islands, the northern coast of Spain, the iconic Loire Valley, and distant views of the Paris metropolitan area.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
๐Ÿ๏ธ

Gran Canaria

Aerial perspective of the neighboring island of Gran Canaria during the initial climb out of the archipelago.

โ›ฐ๏ธ

Picos de Europa

Distant views of the jagged, often snow-capped limestone peaks of Northern Spain as you cross the Bay of Biscay.

๐Ÿท

Loire Valley

Panoramic views of the 'Garden of France,' featuring winding rivers, vineyards, and dense forests.

๐Ÿ—ผ

Greater Paris

On clear days, the dense urban sprawl of Paris and the skyscrapers of La Dรฉfense are often visible on the eastern horizon.

๐ŸŒพ

Hauts-de-France

The flat, historic agricultural plains of Picardy and Northern France during the final approach into Lille.

The right side is generally superior for land-based landmarks. To see the Paris skyline, look slightly forward and to the east about 30-40 minutes before landing. This side also avoids the direct glare of the sun on morning and afternoon flights heading north-northeast.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
๐ŸŒ‹

Mount Teide

Unbeatable views of Spain's highest peak and its volcanic crater shortly after departure from Tenerife South.

๐ŸŒŠ

Atlantic Horizon

Vast ocean views that become particularly spectacular during late afternoon flights with vivid sunset colors.

โš“

Brittany Coast

The rugged western coastline of France's Brittany region as the aircraft crosses the Bay of Biscay.

๐Ÿฐ

Western Loire Valley

Lush green landscapes and the western reaches of France's historic river valley known for its chateaux.

Choose this side if you are flying in the late afternoon or evening to enjoy a long, uninterrupted sunset over the Atlantic. Ensure you are looking out immediately after takeoff to catch the steep ascent of Mount Teide, which is the most dramatic landmark on this side.
