XRY → HHN
Which side of the plane to sit from Jerez Airport (Jerez) to Frankfurt-Hahn Airport (Hahn)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a superior vantage point for the dramatic crossing of the Pyrenees mountains and the winding scenic beauty of the Mosel Valley during descent.
Sierra Morena
Rugged mountain ridges forming the natural border between Andalusia and the Spanish plateau.
Madrid & Guadarrama
Clear views of the Spanish capital's skyline followed by the snow-capped peaks of the Central System.
The Pyrenees
The flight's crown jewel: a spectacular crossing over high-altitude peaks and glacial valleys at the Franco-Spanish border.
Auvergne Volcanoes
Distinctive silhouettes of ancient dormant volcanic cones (Chaîne des Puys) in central France.
Mosel River Bend
The dramatic, steep-banked vineyards and tight loops of the Mosel River during the final approach into Hahn.
Ensure you are by the window for the Pyrenees crossing, which usually occurs 45-60 minutes after takeoff. In the final 10 minutes of flight, the right side offers the best views of the iconic German river loops and medieval castles near the Hunsrück region.
Atlantic Coastline
Distant views of the Gulf of Cádiz and the Doñana National Park wetlands immediately after takeoff.
Seville Panorama
Aerial perspective of the Andalusian capital and the Guadalquivir river snaking through the plains.
Extremadura Dehesas
Unique agricultural landscapes of southwestern Spain characterized by sparse oak forests and grazing lands.
Bordeaux Region
Views of the prestigious vineyards and the Garonne river as the flight traverses western France.
Loire Valley
The 'Garden of France' featuring glimpses of historic chateaux and the country's longest river.
Sit on the left for softer afternoon light when flying northward to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is also better for spotting the French Atlantic coast if the flight path is pushed westward by air traffic control.
