MUC → BRN
Which side of the plane to sit from Munich Airport (Munich) to Bern Belp Airport (Bern)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides an unparalleled view of the Alpine range throughout the flight, culminating in a spectacular view of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau peaks during the descent into Bern.
Bavarian Alps Panorama
Shortly after takeoff, enjoy a sweeping view of the northern Alps stretching across the southern horizon.
Upper Bavarian Lakes
Spot Lake Starnberg and Ammersee glistening to the south as the aircraft climbs to cruising altitude.
Lake Constance (Bodensee)
A massive view of the lake's southern reaches with the Austrian and Swiss shores visible in the distance.
Säntis Peak
The prominent limestone massif of the Alpstein region stands out clearly as you enter Swiss airspace.
Bernese Oberland
The legendary trio of Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau dominates the skyline to the south during the approach to Bern.
Book a window seat on the left (A/B) for the best mountain views. Afternoon flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you, illuminating the Alps without glare. In winter, the snow-capped peaks are particularly vibrant.
Munich Airport Hub
Get a bird's-eye view of MUC's terminal architecture and the surrounding Erdinger Moos landscape.
Island of Lindau
Look for the historic island town and its famous harbor entrance on the northern shore of Lake Constance.
Friedrichshafen
See the home of the Zeppelin and the distinctive hangar located near the northern lakefront.
Black Forest Edge
On a clear day, the southern reaches of the Black Forest are visible to the northwest near the Swiss border.
Bern Old Town
Depending on the landing direction, you may see the Aare river loop and the historic Zytglogge tower area.
The right side is excellent for spotting landmarks along the northern shore of Lake Constance. If landing from the west (Runway 14), you will get a great view of Bern's city center. Morning flights provide soft light on the German countryside.
