Our Recommendation
9.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side of the aircraft provides an exceptional vantage point for the most iconic Mediterranean islands and the dramatic transition from the Atlantic to the European mainland.

Right Side Highlights
9.2
🏝️

Canary Island Chain

Excellent views of Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura, and Lanzarote during the initial climb out.

🌍

Strait of Gibraltar

The narrow passage between Europe and Africa, with views of the Rock of Gibraltar and the Moroccan coast.

🛥️

Balearic Islands

Fly directly over or near Ibiza, Mallorca, and Menorca, showcasing their diverse coastlines.

⛰️

Corsica and Sardinia

Dramatic views of the snow-capped peaks of Corsica and the rugged northern tip of Sardinia.

💎

Isle of Elba

Clear views of the largest island of the Tuscan Archipelago just minutes before the descent into Pisa.

🏛️

Leaning Tower of Pisa

On final approach to Runway 04, the iconic leaning tower and the Piazza dei Miracoli are often visible.

The right side is superior for island spotting. For the best experience, choose a seat behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of Corsica's mountainous spine. During the final approach into PSA, look closely as the plane descends over the Tuscan coast; the Leaning Tower is small but distinct if the flight path aligns with the northern approach.

🌋

Mount Teide

Unrivaled views of Spain's highest peak and the volcanic crater shortly after departure from TFS.

🏖️

Algarve Coastline

Vistas of the golden cliffs and turquoise waters of Southern Portugal as the plane heads northeast.

🏙️

Central Spanish Meseta

A bird's-eye view of the high plateau of central Spain, often passing near the capital, Madrid.

🌊

Costa Brava

The rugged, rocky coastline of northeastern Spain before the flight crosses the Mediterranean.

🇫🇷

French Riviera

Distant views of the glitzy Cote d'Azur and the foothills of the Maritime Alps.

Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and glare while crossing the Spanish mainland. Keep your camera ready immediately after takeoff as the plane often turns, offering a full panorama of the Teide National Park. If landing at PSA from the north, you may see the Ligurian coast.
