Which side of the plane to sit from Berlin-Tegel Airport (Berlin) to Ibiza Airport (Ibiza)?

Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a superior vantage point for the Mediterranean coastline, offering iconic views of Barcelona's grid layout and the turquoise waters surrounding the Balearic Islands during descent.

Left Side Highlights

A clear view of the Sagrada Famรญlia and the unique octagonal blocks of the Eixample district.

๐ŸŒŠ

Balearic Sea

Expansive views of the deep blue Mediterranean as the plane begins its descent towards the islands.

๐Ÿ๏ธ

Formentera

On the final approach, look south to see the neighboring island of Formentera and its white sand beaches.

Sit on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side is essential for seeing the Spanish coastline and Barcelona. During the approach into Ibiza (usually Runway 24), the left side often offers a better view of the island's southern beaches and the salt flats of Ses Salines.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
๐ŸŒฒ

Potsdam Lakes

Scenic views of the Templiner See and the green expanse of the Havelland region.

โ›ฐ๏ธ

Massif Central

The ancient volcanic peaks and plateaus of south-central France.

๐Ÿ”๏ธ

The Pyrenees

๐ŸŒพ

Ebro Valley

The winding Ebro river and the arid, dramatic landscapes of the Aragon region.

๐Ÿฐ

Ibiza Old Town

Depending on the landing pattern, a view of the Dalt Vila fortress and the Ibiza harbor.

Choose the right side for afternoon flights to avoid direct sunlight. This side is significantly better for viewing the high peaks of the Pyrenees. If the plane circles before landing, you may get a brief but stunning view of the Es Vedrร  rock formation off the western coast.
