Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from London to Palma De Mallorca. While takeoff offers good London views on the left, the landing approach on the right provides more dramatic and sustained scenery: the Balearic Sea, mountain ranges, and Palma's iconic waterfront and cathedral make the descent more visually rewarding than the departure.

During takeoff from City (LCY), sit on the Left side for the best views. LCY typically departs eastbound (Runway 27 is primary, but 09 is used for eastbound departures). Left seats face north initially, giving views of the Thames, Canary Wharf, and the City of London skyline as you climb out over East London. Notable sights include: River Thames (immediate foreground), Canary Wharf and Isle of Dogs (north), Greenwich Peninsula (northeast), North Downs ridge (distant northern horizon).

When landing at Palma De Mallorca (PMI), sit on the Right side for the best views. PMI uses Runway 24 (southwest approach) most frequently. Right seats face southeast during final approach, offering views of the Balearic Sea, the Serra de Tramuntana mountain range to the northwest, and Palma's waterfront and cathedral as you descend into the island. Notable sights include: Balearic Sea (foreground and left), Serra de Tramuntana mountains (right, northwest of Palma), Palma Cathedral and Old Town waterfront (center-right), Bellver Castle ruins (right, elevated above city).

The flight from City (LCY) to Palma De Mallorca (PMI) takes Approximately 2 hours 15 minutes.

The flight path crosses the English Channel (visible as a narrow water body about 45 minutes into flight), then passes over northern France with the Pyrenees appearing on the horizon to the south around the 90-minute mark. The Mediterranean coast of Spain becomes visible around 100 minutes, with the Balearic Islands appearing as small landmasses in the sea approximately 30 minutes before landing at Palma.
