Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Casablanca to Lagos. Right side seats capture the most dramatic geography: the Moroccan Atlantic coast during departure and the Lagos Lagoon system during approach. The flight path itself runs roughly south-southeast over open ocean and coastal West Africa, so right-side passengers get consistent coastal and water views throughout.

During takeoff from Mohammed V (CMN), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right side seats capture the Atlantic coastline and the city of Casablanca receding southward during the initial climb. CMN typically departs on runway 01 or 03 (northbound), so right-side passengers get the best view of the coastal geography as the aircraft banks southeast toward Nigeria. Notable sights include: Atlantic Ocean (immediate right), Casablanca city grid and Hassan II Mosque area (below and right), Anfa district waterfront (right), coastal plains extending south toward El Jadida.

When landing at Lagos Murtala Muhammed (LOS), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left side seats provide the best view of Lagos Lagoon, the city's defining geographic feature, and the approach path over Lekki Peninsula and Ikoyi Island. LOS typically uses runway 18L or 18R (southbound landing), so left-side passengers see the lagoon system, barrier islands, and urban sprawl as the aircraft descends into the approach corridor. Notable sights include: Lagos Lagoon (dominant left and center), Lekki Peninsula (left foreground), Ikoyi Island and Victoria Island (center), Atlantic barrier islands and beach ridge system (right).

The flight from Mohammed V (CMN) to Lagos Murtala Muhammed (LOS) takes Approximately 4 hours 15 minutes.

The flight crosses the Atlantic coast of Morocco, then proceeds over open ocean. Approximately 2 hours into the flight, the aircraft passes west of Mauritania (not visible—too far inland). The route then approaches the West African coast near Senegal and Guinea-Bissau (typically 50+ miles offshore, not clearly visible). The final 90 minutes involve descent toward Lagos, with the Niger Delta's coastal features (mangrove creeks, barrier islands) becoming visible 30-40 minutes before landing. The Bight of Benin (Atlantic waters) dominates the entire oceanic portion of the flight.
