Which side of the plane to sit from Valencia Airport (Valencia) to Ibiza Airport (Ibiza)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior visual experience, featuring the Albufera wetlands upon departure and the iconic silhouette of Es Vedrà and the island of Formentera during the approach to Ibiza.
L'Albufera Natural Park
The largest lake in Spain and its surrounding rice paddies are clearly visible south of Valencia airport.
Cape of San Antonio
The prominent headland of the Costa Blanca near Denia is often visible during the crossing.
Es Vedrà
The mystical and massive limestone rock formation rising 400 meters from the sea near the southwest coast of Ibiza.
Formentera
Crystal clear turquoise waters and the salt pans of Ibiza's sister island, visible during the final approach phase.
This is the 'money side' for this route. For the best experience, book a window seat away from the wing. Sunset flights on the right side are spectacular as the sun dips behind the Spanish mainland. Look out for the white sand beaches of Formentera just before touchdown.
Valencia Cityscape
Aerial view of the City of Arts and Sciences and the expansive modern port area shortly after takeoff.
Balearic Sea
Deep blue Mediterranean waters dominate the short cruise phase of the flight.
Northern Ibiza Cliffs
Rugged, pine-covered terrain and secluded coves of northern Ibiza as the plane descends towards the airport.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight. It provides the best view of the Port of Valencia if the aircraft departs towards the east. During landing, watch for the smaller islets off the north coast of Ibiza.
