ZAZ → STN
Which side of the plane to sit from Zaragoza Air Base (Zaragoza) to London Stansted Airport (London)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the highest Pyrenees peaks shortly after takeoff and a spectacular crossing of the English Channel with views of the White Cliffs and the Thames Estuary.
Central Pyrenees
Dramatic views of the highest snow-capped peaks in the range.
Bordeaux Vineyards
The famous wine-producing regions of southwestern France.
Loire Valley
Historical chateaux and the meandering path of the Loire river.
Paris Distant
On clear days, the Parisian sprawl and Eiffel Tower are visible.
White Cliffs
The iconic chalk coastline of Dover upon entering UK airspace.
Thames Estuary
The winding river and industrial landscape of the Essex coast.
Ideal for afternoon flights with the sun at your back. Within the first 20 minutes, focus on the mountain peaks. Watch for the chalky coastline of Kent and the intricate turns of the Thames before landing.
Western Pyrenees
Early views of the rugged mountains separating Spain and France.
Atlantic Coastline
The French coast near La Rochelle and the Bay of Biscay.
Loire Estuary
Where the Loire river meets the ocean near Saint-Nazaire.
English Channel
Views of the busy maritime traffic between France and the UK.
London Horizon
The sprawling city and its landmarks visible during the descent.
Best for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. Look west to see the French Atlantic coast and the urban layout of London as the plane turns for its final approach into Stansted.
