Which side of the plane to sit from Jerez Airport (Jerez) to Palma De Mallorca Airport (Palma de Mallorca)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular vantage point of Spain's highest mountain range, the Sierra Nevada, followed by a coastal transition over the Mediterranean and a scenic approach into the Bay of Palma.
Sierra Nevada Peaks
Magnificent views of the snow-capped Mulhacén, the highest peak on the Iberian Peninsula.
Tabernas Desert
The unique, arid badlands of Almería, often used as a filming location for Western movies.
Cabo de Gata
A stunning volcanic natural park where the mountains meet the deep blue Mediterranean Sea.
Ibiza and Formentera
On a clear day, the Pityusic Islands are visible to the south during the flight across the Balearic Sea.
Bay of Palma & Cathedral
A classic final approach view featuring the La Seu Cathedral and the busy maritime port of Palma.
The right side is the clear winner for scenery. For the best experience, choose a morning flight to have the sun behind you when viewing the Sierra Nevada. Keep your camera ready about 20-30 minutes after takeoff for the mountain peaks and again 15 minutes before landing for the Mallorca coastline.
Campiña de Jerez
Vast agricultural landscapes and vineyards surrounding the Sherry capital right after takeoff.
Sierra Morena
The rugged northern border of Andalusia featuring dense Mediterranean forests and rolling hills.
Valencia & Albufera
Aerial view of the city of Valencia and the large freshwater lagoon known for its rice paddies.
Serra de Tramuntana
The dramatic UNESCO World Heritage mountain range on the northwest coast of Mallorca during descent.
Sit on the left if you prefer inland geography and want a clear view of the Valencian coastline before the sea crossing. During the final approach into PMI, you may get a glimpse of the rugged northern cliffs of Mallorca if the wind is from the north.
