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

Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a breathtaking perspective of the high Alps during the cruise phase and a spectacular view of the Port of Mahon, one of the world's largest natural harbors, upon landing.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🏙️

Berlin Skyline

Detailed views of the Reichstag, Tiergarten, and the Berlin TV Tower shortly after a southern departure.

🏔️

The High Alps

A magnificent panorama of the Swiss and French Alps, including distant views of Mont Blanc.

🌊

Mediterranean Entry

Crossing the coastline near the French Riviera with deep azure waters and white surf.

⚓

Port of Mahón

A stunning aerial view of the elongated natural harbor and the historic town of Maó during descent.

Book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Alps perfectly. If the plane lands from the north, sit by the window to see the full length of the Mahon harbor. Avoid the wing area (rows 12-20) for unobstructed views of the mountain peaks.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
🌲

Thuringian Forest

Rolling green hills and dense forest canopies as the flight traverses central Germany.

🍷

Rhône Valley

The winding Rhône river and the expansive vineyards of southern France.

🦩

Camargue Wetlands

Distinctive salt pans and marshlands of the Rhone delta before heading out to sea.

🏝️

Menorca's North Coast

The rugged, reddish cliffs of Cavalleria and the pristine northern beaches of the island.

The right side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Balearic Sea. Keep an eye out for the distinctive white salt flats of the Camargue as you leave the French mainland. It also offers great views of the island's northern coastline if the approach path circles around the west.
