Which side of the plane to sit from Ibn Batouta Airport (Tanger) to Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (Amsterdam)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers the most iconic landmarks of the route, starting with a close-up view of the Rock of Gibraltar and ending with the heart of Western Europe's urban and geographic diversity.
Rock of Gibraltar
The legendary limestone monolith visible almost immediately after takeoff.
Andalusian Interior
The rugged mountains and olive-rich plains of southern Spain.
The Pyrenees
Dramatic snow-capped peaks separating the Iberian Peninsula from France.
Loire Valley
The 'Garden of France' featuring winding rivers and historic chateaus.
Paris Basin
The distant urban sprawl of the French capital and its surrounding region.
Brussels Skyline
The dense city center of the Belgian capital before crossing into the Netherlands.
Keep your camera ready in the first 5-10 minutes of flight for the best view of Gibraltar. This side benefits from excellent morning light for photography when flying north, particularly over the Pyrenees and French countryside.
Strait of Gibraltar
The western opening where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Mediterranean Sea.
Costa de la Luz
View the golden sandy beaches of Spain's southwestern coast.
Bay of Biscay
Cross the deep blue waters of the Atlantic between Spain and France.
Normandy Coast
Spot the historic coastline and D-Day beaches of northern France.
Port of Rotterdam
The massive scale of Europe's largest seaport visible during the descent.
This side is perfect for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Atlantic Ocean. During the final approach to Schiphol, the left side often provides a great view of the Dutch coastline and the North Sea.
