Which side of the plane to sit from Toulouse-Blagnac Airport (Toulouse) to Mohammed V International Airport (Casablanca)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers the most dramatic views of the high Pyrenees massifs, a clear perspective of the Atlantic entrance to the Strait of Gibraltar, and a stunning approach along the Moroccan coastline.
Central Pyrenees
Prime views of the highest peaks in the range, including the snow-capped Maladeta massif.
Ebro River Valley
The deep green carving of the Ebro River as it winds through the rugged terrain of northern Spain.
Strait of Gibraltar
An iconic view of the meeting point between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea.
Atlantic Coastline
The beautiful blue transition where the Moroccan sands meet the Atlantic waves during the descent.
Casablanca Shoreline
The impressive sight of the Hassan II Mosque sitting on the water's edge as the plane maneuvers for landing.
The right side is the 'sunset side' for late afternoon flights, offering incredible golden hour lighting over the ocean. Keep your camera ready about 75-90 minutes into the flight for the Strait of Gibraltar. During the final approach into CMN, the plane often banks over the Atlantic, providing the best angle for the Casablanca skyline.
Toulouse Cityscape
Aerial views of the 'Pink City' and the Garonne River immediately following takeoff from Blagnac.
Eastern Pyrenees
Rugged alpine terrain and glacial valleys along the French-Spanish border.
Castilian Plateau
The vast, arid landscapes of central Spain featuring unique agricultural patterns and earth tones.
Rif Mountains
The initial Moroccan landfall featuring the verdant and folded ridges of the Rif range.
Moroccan Heartland
A patchwork of fertile plains and traditional settlements leading toward the Casablanca region.
Select the left side for morning departures to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Spanish Meseta. This side is particularly interesting during the middle of the flight for observing the inland geography of the Iberian Peninsula and the transition into the African continent's varied topography.
