The Danube at Regensburg

Bavarian Forest
Expansive views of the largest continuous forest area in Central Europe along the German-Czech border.
Šumava National Park
The 'Green Roof of Europe' featuring rolling mountain ridges and high-altitude peat bogs.
Prague Old Town
On final approach to Runway 24, look for the 'City of a Hundred Spires' and the Vltava River loops.
This side is ideal for nature lovers due to the extensive forest views. During the final minutes of flight, keep your camera ready for Prague's historic center. Morning flights offer the best lighting as the sun illuminates the landscape from the east/southeast.

Allianz Arena
Shortly after takeoff from Munich, look for the glowing white 'donut' stadium of FC Bayern Munich.
Landshut
The historic Bavarian city with the towering St. Martin's Church and Trausnitz Castle visible on the Isar river.
Plzeň (Pilsen)
The industrial and brewing hub of West Bohemia, clearly recognizable by its large central square and brewery complex.
Křivoklátsko Forest
A UNESCO biosphere reserve featuring deep valleys and dense beech forests just west of Prague.
Sit here for the best views of the Munich outskirts and the city of Plzeň. If departing to the east, the Allianz Arena is a major landmark. Afternoon flights are better on this side to avoid the direct glare of the southern sun.
