VLC โ BRU
Which side of the plane to sit from Valencia Airport (Valencia) to Brussels Airport (Brussels)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior panorama of the Mediterranean coast upon departure, the most impressive central peaks of the Pyrenees, and the lush Ardennes during the approach to Brussels.
Costa del Azahar
Beautiful coastline views of the Mediterranean as the aircraft climbs out of Valencia.
Central Pyrenees
The highest peaks of the range, often including views of Andorra's mountainous terrain.
Massif Central
Unique volcanic topography and ancient plateaus in south-central France.
Distant Alps
On clear days, the majestic snow-capped Swiss and French Alps appear as a white jagged line on the eastern horizon.
Ardennes Forest
The dense, rolling green hills and deep valleys of Southern Belgium during the final descent phases.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the glare of the southern sun. Watch for the Alps appearing on the eastern horizon roughly halfway through the journey. During descent, look for the Meuse river winding through the Belgian landscape near Namur.
Serranรญa de Cuenca
Rugged limestone formations and deep river canyons of east-central Spain shortly after takeoff.
Western Pyrenees
Dramatic high-altitude views of the border mountains between Spain and France.
Loire Valley
The 'Garden of France' featuring winding rivers and patches of historic agricultural landscapes.
Paris Cityscape
On clear days with a westerly flight path, the sprawl of Paris and the Eiffel Tower may be visible in the distance.
Flanders Plains
The dense urban clusters and flat, structured fields of Northern France and Southern Belgium.
Choose the left side for sunset views on late afternoon flights. Keep your camera ready about 60 to 70 minutes into the flight for a possible view of the Paris metropolitan area to the north-east.
