Malta International Airport

Flying into certain airports around the world can yield some seriously stunning views from the plane seat window.

To find the most scenic airport approaches, the private jet charter company PrivateFly asked its users to vote for their favourite airports to land in for its Airport Poll Results 2016.

Over 7,500 votes were cast for 115 airports all over the world, with the results shortlisted by a panel of judges.

The airports voted the most picturesque include European cities with skyscraper views and Caribbean islands with dangerously close landings.

Here are the 10 winning airports:

10. London City Airport, UK — Unlike Heathrow or Gatwick, this London airport offers truly spectacular views of the British capital upon landing with Canary Wharf, the O2 Centre, and the Thames all in sight.



9. Los Angeles International Airport, US — Flying into Los Angeles yields sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, the city's downtown skyline, and even the iconic Hollywood sign in the Hills.



8. St. Maarten Airport, Caribbean — Whether you're in the air or on the ground, planes landing into St. Maarten give incredible views. From the air, fliers get an unspoiled view of the translucent waters and golden sand of Maho Beach, while thrill-seeking beachgoers are just a few feet away from low incoming jets.
