Which side of the plane to sit from Warsaw Chopin Airport (Warsaw) to Málaga Airport (Malaga)?
Left Side of the Plane
The Left Side offers superior views of the dramatic Sierra Nevada range and the eastern Pyrenees, providing a more mountainous and scenic descent into the Costa del Sol.
Tatra Mountains
Jagged peaks on the border of Poland and Slovakia visible shortly after departure from Warsaw.
The Alps
The northern reaches of the Austrian and Swiss Alps are visible in the distance across Central Europe.
Sierra Nevada
Spain's highest mountain range, offering stunning snow-capped views just before the final descent into Malaga.
City of Granada
The historic city nestled at the foot of the mountains can be spotted as the plane heads toward the coast.
Alboran Sea
The deep blue waters of the Mediterranean appearing on the horizon during the final approach phase.
This side is ideal for spotting the Sierra Nevada. On morning flights, the sun will be on this side, so be prepared for some glare. Aim for a seat ahead of the wing for unobstructed photos of the high peaks before landing.
European Plains
A beautiful patchwork of forests and agricultural fields across Poland and Germany early in the flight.
The Pyrenees
A spectacular crossing of the rugged mountain barrier between France and Spain, often the flight highlight.
Spanish Meseta
The vast, high-altitude plateau of central Spain characterized by its unique red and ochre earth tones.
Costa del Sol Shoreline
Stunning views of the Mediterranean beaches and coastal towns as the plane banks toward the airport.
Malaga Harbor
The bustling port and historic center of Malaga are often visible during the final moments of flight.
The right side is best for viewing the Pyrenees without the sun's glare for most of the day. During the final approach, this side often provides a clearer view of the shoreline and the city of Malaga itself as the aircraft aligns with the runway.
