TIP → CMN
Which side of the plane to sit from Tripoli International Airport (Tripoli) to Mohammed V International Airport (Casablanca)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a superior vantage point for the dramatic desert landscapes of the Sahara and the majestic, often snow-capped peaks of the Atlas Mountain ranges in Algeria and Morocco.
Grand Erg Oriental
Breathtaking views of the massive Algerian sand dunes and desert formations shortly after crossing the Tunisian border.
Atlas Mountain Range
A continuous view of the Saharan Atlas and High Atlas mountains, showcasing rugged ridges and deep valleys.
Moroccan Meseta
The transition from arid mountains to the fertile, rolling plains of central Morocco as you descend toward Casablanca.
Saharan Sunsets
For late afternoon flights, the southern horizon offers incredible golden hour lighting over the desert floor.
Choose the left side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you, illuminating the Atlas Mountains perfectly. In winter months, look for snow on the peaks of the High Atlas. This side is consistently more geographic and dramatic throughout the flight.
Mediterranean Coastline
Views of the turquoise waters and rugged cliffs along the northern coasts of Tunisia and Algeria.
Algiers and Oran
Aerial perspectives of major North African coastal cities and their busy Mediterranean ports.
Maritime Traffic
Spot cargo ships and tankers navigating the primary shipping lanes between the Maghreb and Southern Europe.
The right side is ideal for spotting the coastline and the transition to the Atlantic Ocean. If the flight path takes a northern corridor, you may catch a glimpse of the Strait of Gibraltar in the far distance. Best for afternoon flights to witness the sunset over the Atlantic during the approach to CMN.
