Which side of the plane to sit from Queen Alia International Airport (Amman) to Munich Airport (Munich)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior vantage point for the Mediterranean coastline, the stunning Greek archipelagos, and a majestic entry into the Alps before landing in Munich.
Mediterranean Coastline
Stunning views of the Levantine coast and the transition from desert to deep blue sea.
Greek Archipelagos
Aerial perspectives of the Aegean and Ionian islands scattered across the water.
Adriatic Shoreline
The rugged, crystalline coastline of Croatia and the Dalmatian Islands.
The Eastern Alps
Breathtaking snow-capped peaks as the flight crosses into Austria and Southern Germany.
Bavarian Lakes
Glacial lakes like Chiemsee and Starnberg visible during the final descent into Munich.
The left side is ideal for late afternoon flights to catch the sunset over the Mediterranean. Keep your camera ready about 45 minutes before landing for the most dramatic Alpine views. In winter, the contrast between the turquoise Adriatic and the white Alps is spectacular.
Amman Skyline
A great view of the 'White City' and its ancient Roman ruins shortly after takeoff.
Mount Hermon
The highest point in the region, often snow-capped, bordering Lebanon and Syria.
Taurus Mountains
The dramatic, jagged peaks of southern Turkey meeting the Mediterranean Sea.
Balkan Wilderness
Lush green forests and rolling mountain ranges across Bulgaria and Serbia.
Danube River
The winding blue artery of Central Europe snaking through the plains.
The right side is excellent for morning flights as the sun illuminates the mountains of Lebanon and Turkey. It provides a better view of the Balkan interior. Look out for the Danube River as it signals the final third of your journey toward Germany.
