Which side of the plane to sit from Bern Belp Airport (Bern) to Berlin-Tegel Airport (Berlin)?

Sit behind the wing to ensure your view of the Alps isn't blocked by the engines. This side is superior for photography during the landing phase, as it usually faces the main Berlin landmarks when approaching from the west.
