EIN → INN
Which side of the plane to sit from Eindhoven Airport (Eindhoven) to Innsbruck Airport (Innsbruck)?
Right Side of the Plane
While both sides are spectacular during the Alpine descent, the right side offers a more consistent view of the high-altitude peaks of the Central Eastern Alps and the famous Bergisel Ski Jump on final approach.
Black Forest
Vast stretches of dark evergreen forests covering the mountains of Southwest Germany.
Swiss and Austrian Alps
Panoramic views of the main Alpine ridge, including snow-capped peaks of the Silvretta and Arlberg regions.
Arlberg Ski Region
Aerial views of world-famous ski resorts like St. Anton and Lech during the descent.
Bergisel Ski Jump
An iconic architectural landmark on the southern edge of Innsbruck, clearly visible just before touchdown.
The right side is the prime choice for high-altitude Alpine scenery. Aim for a seat in front of or behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the deep valleys. During winter months, the contrast of the snow against the valley floor is breathtaking, especially on afternoon flights when the sun illuminates the southern rock faces.
Eifel National Park
Rolling green hills and dense forests of the mid-German highlands shortly after cruise.
Lake Constance
Views of the northern German shore including Friedrichshafen and the Lindau area.
Karwendel Mountains
Dramatic limestone cliffs and jagged ridges as the plane begins its steep descent into the Inn Valley.
Innsbruck Nordkette
The steep mountain range that looms directly over the city, providing a sense of scale during the landing.
Sit on the left for the best views of the Nordkette mountains during the final approach. This side is also preferable for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun reflecting off the clouds or snow.
