Rabat to Lisbon flight path: RBA to LIS

Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Rabat to Lisbon. While takeoff from Rabat offers coastal views, the landing approach into Lisbon provides more dramatic and distinctive scenery: the Tagus estuary, the iconic Ponte 25 de Abril, and Lisbon's historic hillside districts create a more memorable window experience than the relatively flat Moroccan departure.

During takeoff from Sale (RBA), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right-side seats offer views of the Atlantic coastline and the Bouregreg River valley as the aircraft climbs northwestward from Rabat-Salé. The coastal plain and early views toward the Strait of Gibraltar region are visible on departure. Notable sights include: Bouregreg River estuary, Atlantic coastline north of Rabat, Kasbah of the Udayas, Sale medina.

When landing at Lisboa (LIS), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left-side seats provide excellent views of the Tagus River estuary, Lisbon's hillside districts, and the Ponte 25 de Abril bridge during the descent and approach from the northeast. The river and city layout are most dramatic from this angle. Notable sights include: Tagus River estuary, Ponte 25 de Abril suspension bridge, Lisbon's Alfama and Baixa districts on hills, Cristo Rei monument on south bank.

The flight from Sale (RBA) to Lisboa (LIS) takes 1h 15m.

The Strait of Gibraltar region (visible as a narrow water passage between African and European coasts at approximately 35.9°N -5.3°E), the Portuguese Algarve coastline with its distinctive orange cliffs and rocky formations, and the transition from Moroccan Atlantic plains to Portuguese coastal hills and river valleys
