Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Malaga to London. The left side misses the best of the Malaga departure but delivers the spectacular London approach over the Thames and central city, which is one of the most recognisable urban aerial views in Europe. Mid-flight over France and the Bay of Biscay coastline, the left side also tracks closer to the Atlantic coast of France, offering occasional coastal views.

During takeoff from Malaga (AGP), sit on the Right side for the best views. Malaga typically departs on runway 13 heading southeast, then turns north. The right side gives you the city of Malaga, the port, and the Mediterranean coastline stretching toward Almeria. As the aircraft banks north, the Sierra Nevada range comes into view to the northeast. Notable sights include: Malaga city centre and port, Costa del Sol coastline, Sierra Nevada mountains, Malaga's La Malagueta beach.

When landing at Heathrow (LHR), sit on the Left side for the best views. Heathrow predominantly lands on runway 27L or 27R heading west, meaning the approach is from the east over London. The left side tracks directly over central London, giving clear views of the Thames, the City, and recognisable landmarks below. The right side sees mostly suburban west London. Notable sights include: River Thames and its distinctive bends, City of London skyline, Wembley Stadium arch, Windsor Castle and Great Park.

The flight from Malaga (AGP) to Heathrow (LHR) takes Approximately 2 hours 40 minutes.

The route crosses the Sierra Morena hills north of Cordoba, then the Spanish Meseta plateau, before crossing the Pyrenees or skirting the Bay of Biscay coast near Bilbao. Over France the aircraft typically tracks across the Massif Central or the Loire Valley depending on routing, then crosses the English Channel near Cherbourg or Brest before descending over southern England.
