Why is it masculine?

Planes is masculine in Spanish. While it does derive from French "plan" (from Latin "planus," meaning flat or level), the gender is better explained by the fact that Spanish masculine nouns ending in -an are common (e.g., "capitán," "volcán," "huracán"). The word was borrowed into Spanish and took on the masculine gender typical of -an ending nouns in Spanish, regardless of the source language's gender assignment.
