Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Zurich to Casablanca. The left side captures the spectacular Lake Zurich and Swiss Mittelland on departure, then tracks the western side of the flight path over France, giving views of the Massif Central and eventually the Spanish meseta and Sierra Nevada range in the distance. The right side has less dramatic terrain for most of the cruise.

During takeoff from Zurich (ZRH), sit on the Left side for the best views. Zurich typically departs on runway 16 heading south, or runway 28 heading west. On a southbound departure toward CMN, the left side gives you the city of Zurich and Lake Zurich stretching southeast, plus the Albis ridge. On a westbound departure, the left side still captures the Jura hills and the city center. Notable sights include: Lake Zurich, Zurich city center, Albis ridge, Uetliberg hill.

When landing at Mohammed V (CMN), sit on the Right side for the best views. Mohammed V Airport serves Casablanca from the northeast, with aircraft typically on final approach heading southwest on runway 35L/35R or northwest. On approach from the northeast, the right side faces northwest toward the Atlantic coast and Casablanca's urban sprawl, giving you the clearest view of the city and the ocean shoreline. Notable sights include: Casablanca city center and port, Atlantic Ocean coastline, Hassan II Mosque (visible from low altitude), Grand Casablanca urban grid.

The flight from Zurich (ZRH) to Mohammed V (CMN) takes Approximately 3 hours 15 minutes.

The route crosses the French Massif Central plateau, then the Pyrenees mountains along the Franco-Spanish border, followed by the broad flat Spanish meseta of Castile, the Sierra Morena hills of Andalusia, and finally the Strait of Gibraltar before crossing into northern Morocco over the Rif Mountains.
