Which side of the plane to sit from Zweibrücken Airport (Zweibruecken) to Palma De Mallorca Airport (Palma de Mallorca)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular vantage point for the dramatic Serra de Tramuntana mountain range and the iconic Palma city skyline during the final approach.
Massif Central
Ancient volcanic peaks and rugged highland plateaus in central France.
Serra de Tramuntana
The UNESCO-listed mountain backbone of Mallorca, featuring jagged limestone peaks.
Port de Sóller
A glimpse of the circular natural harbor nestled at the base of the mountains.
Palma Cathedral
The massive Gothic 'La Seu' cathedral standing prominently over the harbor.
Port of Palma
Luxury yachts and cruise ships docked in the expansive bay during the final turn.
The right side is essential for the scenic approach. As the plane circles the Bay of Palma, you get a panoramic view of the city and its historic landmarks. Choose a window seat forward of the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block the view of the Tramuntana mountains.
Black Forest Fringe
Dense evergreen forests of southwestern Germany visible shortly after departure.
Jura Mountains
Distinctive folded mountain ridges along the border of France and Switzerland.
Camargue Delta
The sprawling salt marshes and wetlands where the Rhône River meets the Mediterranean.
Gulf of Lion
Deep blue views of the Mediterranean Sea as the flight leaves the French coast.
Cap Blanc
The stark white limestone cliffs of Mallorca's southern coast during descent.
Sit on the left for softer morning light and views of the French coastline far to the east. During approach, you will see the flatter, turquoise bays of the southeast coast. This side is typically better for avoiding direct glare on afternoon southbound flights.
