Search flights from TFS to PAD
Mount Teide
The most dramatic view of the flight, passing right by Spain's highest peak and its massive crater.
Dune of Pilat
The tallest sand dune in Europe is often visible along the French coast near Bordeaux.
Gironde Estuary
The beautiful convergence of the Garonne and Dordogne rivers into the Atlantic.
Parisian Skyline
On clear days, the Eiffel Tower and the urban sprawl of Paris are frequently visible to the east.
Teutoburg Forest
The rolling green hills and dense forests surrounding Paderborn during the final descent.
Sit on the right for the absolute best view of Teide upon departure from TFS. This side typically stays on the 'sunny side' during northbound morning flights, so keep window shades ready. Watch for the distinctive shape of the Arcachon Bay when crossing the French coast.
Book Hotels in PaderbornAnaga Massif
Spectacular views of Tenerife's ancient northern mountain range shortly after takeoff.
Atlantic Deep
Expansive views of the deep blue Atlantic and occasionally the distant island of Madeira.
Biscay Crossing
Aerial perspective of the heavy shipping lanes entering the Bay of Biscay.
Loire River
Sight of the longest river in France as the flight path crosses central France.
Rhine River Valley
Views of the industrial and scenic Rhine corridor during the descent into North Rhine-Westphalia.
Opt for the left side if flying during the late afternoon to catch the sunset over the ocean. It provides better views of the northern Tenerife coastline if the aircraft makes a sharp turn after departure. During the final approach to PAD, look for the Lippe river valley.
