MUC → AYT
Which side of the plane to sit from Munich Airport (Munich) to Antalya International Airport (Antalya)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side is generally superior for this route because it offers better views of the Mediterranean coastline, the Greek islands, and the dramatic approach into Antalya over the sea and cliffs.
Search flights from MUC to AYT
Karawanken Range
Sharp, jagged limestone peaks marking the border between Austria and Slovenia.
Adriatic Vistas
Distant but clear views of the blue Adriatic Sea and the scattered islands of the Croatian coast.
Aegean Archipelago
A stunning view of the Greek islands and the deep blue waters of the Aegean Sea during the mid-flight segment.
Antalya Cityscape
A breathtaking view of the city's cliffs, the old harbor, and the Konyaaltı beach during the final descent.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun will be behind or above the plane. This side is particularly rewarding during the landing phase at AYT; if the aircraft approaches from the south (a common flight path), you will see the spectacular Düden Waterfalls and the entire Antalya bay coastline from your window.

Chiemsee
Known as the 'Bavarian Sea', this massive lake is visible shortly after departing Munich Airport.
Hohe Tauern
Panoramic views of the Austrian Alps' central ridge, including some of the region's highest glacial peaks.
Lake Beyşehir
Turkey's largest freshwater lake appears as a brilliant turquoise gem set within the Anatolian landscape.
Taurus Mountains
A rugged and extensive mountain chain that you will cross just before reaching the Turkish coast.
Choose the left side for morning departures to avoid direct sunlight and glare. It provides the best perspective of the interior Turkish landscape and the transition from the high plateau to the coastal mountains. During winter, look for the snow-covered peaks of the High Tauern in Austria about 15-20 minutes into the flight.
