TMP β GRO
Which side of the plane to sit from Tampere-Pirkkala Airport (Tampere) to Girona Airport (Gerona)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides a superior vantage point for the most dramatic transition from the snowy peaks of the Alps to the shimmering Mediterranean coastline and the rugged cliffs of the Costa Brava.
Baltic Seascape
Expansive views of the Baltic Sea and potentially the Swedish islands of Gotland or Γland depending on the corridor.
Central Alpine Chain
Spectacular views of the snow-capped Eastern and Central Alps as the flight traverses south.
French Riviera Coast
As the plane approaches Spain, catch views of the glittering Mediterranean and the southern French coastline.
Costa Brava Cliffs
Detailed views of the jagged Catalan coastline and turquoise coves just before the final turn for landing.
Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare while viewing the Alps. The best mountain views occur roughly 90 to 120 minutes into the flight. Keep your camera ready as you cross the French border into Spain for the best coastal shots.
Finnish Archipelago
A stunning mosaic of thousands of islands and islets immediately after departure from Tampere.
Northern European Plains
Intricate patterns of German or Polish agricultural heartlands and wind farms.
Western Alpine Peaks
Distant but majestic views of the highest European summits, including the Mont Blanc massif.
Pyrenees Mountains
The dramatic northern face of the Pyrenees serves as a backdrop during the descent into Girona.
The right side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Pyrenees. Watch the ground within the first 15 minutes of departure for the best views of the Finnish lake district and islands. During the descent, look for the medieval fortifications of Girona city.
