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

Sainte-Victoire Mountain
The iconic white limestone ridge near Aix-en-Provence that inspired many of Paul Cézanne's famous paintings.
High Alpine Giants
Unobstructed views of the Matterhorn's pyramid shape and the Monte Rosa massif along the Swiss-Italian border.
Austrian Tyrol
Fly over the deep valleys and high-altitude glaciers of the Tyrolean Alps as you cross into Central Europe.
Zugspitze Summit
Gaze at Germany's highest point and the surrounding Wetterstein mountains as the terrain drops toward the Bavarian plateau.
Bavarian Lakes
Stunning aerial views of the turquoise waters of Lake Starnberg and Ammersee just before the final approach into Munich.
The Right Side offers superior views of the jagged southern Alpine chain. In winter, the contrast between the snow-covered peaks and the deep green valleys is spectacular. Try to avoid seats over the wing to ensure your view of the Bavarian lakes isn't obscured during the descent.

Marseille & Calanques
Stunning views of the Vieux-Port and the limestone fjords of the Calanques National Park immediately after takeoff.
Massif des Écrins
Observe the majestic glaciers and jagged peaks of the Ecrins National Park, including the Barre des Écrins.
Mont Blanc
Look north to see the snow-capped 'Roof of Europe' standing prominently above the surrounding French and Swiss ranges.
Lake Constance
A massive expanse of water where Germany, Austria, and Switzerland meet, usually seen along the northern shoreline.
Munich City Center
Depending on the landing pattern, you may see the Allianz Arena and the twin domes of the Frauenkirche during the descent.
For the best visibility of Mont Blanc and the northern Alpine fringe, select a window seat ahead of the wing. Early morning flights are ideal as the sun rises in the east, beautifully lighting the northern faces of the mountains you'll be passing.
