FRA → LNZ
Which side of the plane to sit from Frankfurt am Main Airport (Frankfurt) to Linz Hörsching Airport (Linz)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the majestic Alpine range on the southern horizon and iconic landmarks like the Frankfurt skyline and the Allianz Arena in Munich.
Frankfurt Skyline
The impressive 'Mainhattan' skyscrapers are often visible during the initial ascent phase.
Allianz Arena
The glowing white 'inflatable' stadium of FC Bayern Munich can be spotted to the south mid-flight.
Northern Limestone Alps
A breathtaking panoramic view of the snow-capped Alpine peaks stretching across the southern horizon.
Hausruckviertel
The lush, rolling agricultural hills and traditional farmsteads of Upper Austria during the final descent.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to catch the sunrise over the Alps. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes into the flight for distant views of Munich. In winter, the contrast between the white Alpine peaks and the green foothills is particularly striking.
Spessart Nature Park
Dense, rolling deciduous forests visible shortly after takeoff from Frankfurt.
Regensburg
A UNESCO World Heritage city situated at the northernmost point of the Danube.
Danube Confluence
Dramatic views of the Danube river as it winds through Lower Bavaria towards the Austrian border.
Passau Old Town
The 'City of Three Rivers' where the Inn, Ilz, and Danube meet in a stunning geographic display.
Sit on the left for the best views of the Danube's winding path. This side is better during afternoon flights as you will have the sun behind you, illuminating the Bavarian landscape and the historic architecture of Passau and Regensburg.
