Search flights from CFU to MUC
Dalmatian Islands
The stunning turquoise waters and white stone of the Croatian islands, including Hvar and Braฤ.
Dinaric Alps
The rugged, grey karst mountain ranges running parallel to the Adriatic coast through Montenegro and Croatia.
High Tauern Range
Spectacular views of the glaciated peaks of the central Austrian Alps, often passing near the Grossglockner.
Chiemsee
The 'Bavarian Sea' with its famous islands, Herrenchiemsee and Frauenchiemsee, visible shortly before landing.
Salzburg Area
Frequent views of the Salzach river valley and the northern Alpine fringe near the German border.
The right side is significantly more scenic for this route. For the best lighting on the Balkan coast and the Alps, choose a morning or midday flight. Keep your window shade up about 35-45 minutes after takeoff from Corfu as the Croatian coastline begins to unfold. The Alpine crossing happens quickly, so watch for the snow-capped peaks roughly 25 minutes before landing in Munich.

Adriatic Expanse
Uninterrupted views of the deep blue Adriatic Sea during the middle segment of the flight.
Italian Horizon
On very clear days, the distant silhouette of the Italian coastline and the Gargano Peninsula may be visible.
Western Alps
Views of the limestone massifs along the border of Italy and Austria as the plane heads North.
Lake Starnberg
A popular Bavarian recreational lake visible on the final descent into the Munich area.
Sit on this side during late afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the setting sun. While the views are mostly maritime early on, the approach into Munich provides a great perspective of the rolling Bavarian landscape and the edge of the Alps.
