London to Corvera is 973 miles (1,566 km), a flight of about 2 hours 15 minutes.
Right side scores higher due to superior landing scenery—the Sierra Espuña mountains and Murcia's interior plateau provide genuine topographic drama and visual variety. While takeoff from Luton favors the right side equally, the landing approach on the right captures the transition from coastal plains to mountainous terrain, a more compelling and geographically distinctive sequence than the left side's open Mediterranean views.
