TFS โ OVD
Which side of the plane to sit from Tenerife South Airport (Tenerife) to Asturias Airport (Aviles)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior sequence of views, including the neighboring Canary Islands at takeoff, a glimpse of the Andalusian coastline, and the dramatic limestone peaks of the Picos de Europa during the descent into Asturias.
Gran Canaria View
A clear silhouette of the neighboring island of Gran Canaria visible during the initial climb out of TFS.
Costa de la Luz
The golden sands and salt marshes of the Huelva and Cรกdiz coastline as you make landfall in Spain.
Seville & Guadalquivir
A distant view of the Andalusian capital and the winding path of the Guadalquivir River.
Picos de Europa
Breathtaking limestone massifs and jagged peaks of the Cantabrian Mountains during the final descent phase.
Cantabrian Sea
Views of the rugged 'Costa Verde' and the Bay of Biscay as the plane lines up for its approach into Avilรฉs.
Sit behind the wing on the right for the best photos of the Picos de Europa. For late afternoon flights, the right side captures the 'Golden Hour' lighting over the Asturian coastline, making the limestone mountains glow orange and pink.
Mount Teide
Dramatic views of Spain's highest peak and its volcanic crater shortly after departure from Tenerife South.
Atlantic Crossing
A vast perspective of the deep blue Atlantic Ocean as the flight heads north toward the Iberian Peninsula.
Extremadura Dehesas
Observation of the unique Mediterranean landscapes and oak-dotted pastures of western Spain.
Sierra de Gredos
Rugged granite mountains and glacial lagoons visible as the aircraft traverses central Spain.
The Green Coast
The sudden transition to the lush, emerald-green valleys characteristic of the Asturian landscape upon arrival.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight during the northern trek. This side provides the most iconic view of Mount Teide during the climb, provided the flight path loops slightly north before heading to the mainland.
