Which side of the plane to sit from Valencia Airport (Valencia) to Domodedovo International Airport (Moscow)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers the most dramatic views of the High Alps, including the Mont Blanc massif and iconic peaks, as well as the best chance to see the Moscow skyline upon descent into Domodedovo.
High Alpine Peaks
Breathtaking panoramas of the Swiss and Austrian Alps, with snow-capped summits like Mont Blanc visible in the distance.
Lake Constance (Bodensee)
A massive freshwater expanse where Germany, Switzerland, and Austria meet, often shimmering in the sun.
Central European Farmlands
Intricate patchwork quilts of agricultural fields across the Czech Republic and Southern Poland.
Moscow City (MKAD)
On final approach, catch views of the Seven Sisters skyscrapers and the dense urban sprawl of the Russian capital.
The Alps are the star of the show; ensure you have a window seat mid-flight. For arrival, if the plane approaches from the west, the right side usually provides a better angle of the Moscow skyline and the Kremlin in the distance before touchdown.
Spanish Mediterranean Coast
Aerial views of the Costa del Azahar and the transition from the Mediterranean Sea to the Iberian mountains.
The Jura Mountains
Distinctive limestone ridges and lush valleys marking the border between France and Switzerland.
Bavarian Urban Centers
Bird's-eye views of Munich's distinct red-roofed architecture and the circular Allianz Arena stadium.
Belarussian Taiga
Dense, vast stretches of dark green coniferous forests and winding river systems in Eastern Europe.
Sit on the left for softer morning light if flying early. Watch for Lake Geneva and the city of Warsaw if the flight path takes a more northerly trajectory through Poland.
