Which side of the plane to sit from Kos Airport (Kos) to Munich Airport (Munich)?

The left side provides a superior sequence of geographical landmarks, including the scattered Cycladic islands, the crystal-clear Adriatic coastline of Croatia, and a spectacular descent over the Bavarian foothills.

Cyclades Islands
Glimpse the white-washed villages of Naxos and Mykonos scattered across the Aegean.
Dalmatian Coast
The stunning turquoise waters and thousands of islands along the Croatian coastline.
Eastern Alps
Dramatic views of the limestone peaks and glaciers as you cross into Austria.
Starnberg Lake
A classic view of one of Bavaria's largest and most famous lakes during the final descent.
Munich Suburbs
Green landscapes and red-roofed villages of the Bavarian countryside.
The left side is ideal for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight. Keep your camera ready about 15 minutes after takeoff for the best island shots. During winter, the snow-covered Alps on this side are particularly photogenic in the afternoon light.

Dodecanese View
Excellent views of Kalymnos and the rugged coastline of nearby Turkish peninsulas.
Balkan Ranges
Fly over the rugged and wild Dinaric Alps through Montenegro and Bosnia.
Grossglockner
Potential views of Austria's highest peaks if the flight path is slightly easterly.
Chiemsee
Known as the 'Bavarian Sea', this massive lake is often visible on the right during arrival.
Allianz Arena
Look for the glowing white 'doughnut' stadium on the northern outskirts of Munich.
Choose the right side if you want to see the Turkish mainland early on. This side often provides a better view of Chiemsee and the Allianz Arena depending on the wind direction at Munich Airport. Avoid this side during late afternoon flights to escape the sun's glare.
