MUC → DUB
Which side of the plane to sit from Munich Airport (Munich) to Dublin Airport (Dublin)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior perspective of the Rhine valley, potential distant views of London, and a dramatic entry over Dublin Bay during the approach.
Bavarian Heartland
Aerial views of the tidy Bavarian countryside and small villages immediately after takeoff from Munich.
Rhine River
The winding silver ribbon of the Rhine River as the flight crosses western Germany towards the Benelux region.
Brussels Skyline
Visibility of the Belgian capital's urban sprawl, particularly striking during clear weather or evening flights.
English Channel
Cruising over one of the world's busiest shipping lanes with views of container ships below.
Greater London
On more southerly flight paths, the iconic landmarks of London can be spotted in the distance to the north.
Dublin Bay
A stunning approach over the Irish Sea featuring the Howth Peninsula and the Poolbeg chimneys.
To maximize your experience, choose a seat behind the wing to avoid engine glare. For the best view of Dublin Bay, hope for an arrival from the east onto Runway 28. Afternoon flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you, lighting up the European landscape perfectly.
Spessart Forest
Large expanses of dense German woodland passing underneath during the initial cruise phase.
Rotterdam Port
Distant views of the massive industrial shipping infrastructure of the Dutch coast.
The Midlands
Overflying the industrial heart of England, often passing near Birmingham or Manchester.
Snowdonia
The rugged, dark peaks of North Wales provide a dramatic landscape just before the Irish Sea crossing.
Irish Sea
A vast expanse of blue, occasionally offering glimpses of the Isle of Man to the north.
Dublin City North
Excellent views of Dublin's northern suburbs and Croke Park stadium during the final descent.
The right side is excellent for seeing the Welsh mountains, especially in winter when they are snow-capped. During the morning, this side will be in the shade, providing high-contrast views of the ground. It is also the best side for seeing the city center if the aircraft circles for a landing.
