Which side of the plane to sit from Munich Airport (Munich) to Málaga Airport (Malaga)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a spectacular combination of the Bavarian Alps at departure and a long, scenic traverse of the Mediterranean coastline during the descent into Malaga.
Bavarian and Austrian Alps
Dramatic views of the Northern Limestone Alps and the Zugspitze shortly after departure from Munich.
French Riviera
Glittering views of the Côte d'Azur and the Gulf of Lion as the plane tracks toward the Iberian Peninsula.
Barcelona Coastline
A distant but clear perspective of the Catalan capital and its famous urban grid meeting the sea.
Costa Blanca
The turquoise waters and white sandy stretches of the Alicante and Benidorm coastal regions.
Sierra Nevada
Spain's highest peaks, often snow-capped, providing a stunning backdrop just before the final approach into Malaga.
Book an early morning flight to see the sun rising over the Mediterranean. During the final 30 minutes of the flight, stay alert for the Sierra Nevada mountains; they are particularly striking in winter and spring when covered in snow. Request a seat forward of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the coastline during the descent.
Lake Constance
The vast 'Bodensee' marking the intersection of Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.
Swiss Alpine Peaks
High-altitude views of the Bernese Oberland and central Swiss glaciers depending on the specific corridor.
The Pyrenees
The rugged natural border between France and Spain, visible as a continuous wall of granite.
Spanish Meseta
The expansive, sun-drenched high plateau of central Spain, showcasing unique ochre and red earth tones.
Andalusian Olive Groves
The geometric patterns of millions of olive trees covering the hillsides of southern Spain during descent.
Choose the right side for afternoon or evening flights to enjoy the warm glow of the setting sun over the Spanish interior. This side is better for those who prefer rugged mountain terrain over coastal views, especially when crossing the Pyrenees. Keep an eye out roughly 15-20 minutes after takeoff for the best views of the Swiss peaks.
