The left side scores higher due to superior takeoff scenery from Prague—the Vltava River, Bohemian Plateau, and immediate urban-to-rural transition provide more visual interest and variety than the right side's landing approach. While Seville's river approach is scenic, the left side's combination of Prague's dramatic departure and the Central European terrain during cruise (Carpathian foothills, Danube valley) outweighs the landing advantage. The flight path crosses significant geographic transitions that favor the left side's perspective.
