AMS → INN
Which side of the plane to sit from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (Amsterdam) to Innsbruck Airport (Innsbruck)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior panoramic view of the high Alps, including the Zugspitze and the glaciers of the Stubai valley, especially dramatic during the steep descent into the Inn Valley.
Rhine River Valley
Follow the winding path of the Rhine as it flows through the heart of western Germany.
Lake Constance
A glimpse of the massive 'Bodensee' where Germany, Switzerland, and Austria meet.
Zugspitze
Germany's highest peak standing at 2,962 meters, visible shortly before entering Austrian airspace.
Stubai Alps
Snow-capped peaks and glaciers to the south of the flight path during the descent.
Inn Valley Approach
A spectacular low-altitude transit through the valley with mountains towering above the aircraft.
For the most iconic Innsbruck experience, sit on the right. You will see the highest alpine peaks. Afternoon flights provide warm, golden lighting on the mountain faces, perfect for photography.
Dutch Polders
The geometric patterns of reclaimed land and canals immediately after takeoff from Schiphol.
Ruhr Metropolis
The dense urban sprawl and industrial architecture of Germany's largest urban area.
Frankfurt Skyline
Distant views of Germany's financial hub skyscrapers if the flight path tracks slightly east.
Karwendel Nature Park
Rugged limestone peaks flanking the northern side of the Inn Valley during the final approach.
Sit on the left to see the city of Innsbruck and the Nordkette cable car lines during the final moments of the flight. This side is better if the aircraft approaches from the west (Runway 08).
