Which side of the plane to sit from Munich Airport (Munich) to Priština International Airport (Pristina)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a front-row seat to the highest peaks of the Austrian Alps, including the Grossglockner, and the dramatic, rugged terrain of the Dinaric Alps and Prokletije range.
Hohe Tauern
Views of the highest peaks in Austria, often featuring snow-capped summits year-round.
Julian Alps
Look for Triglav, Slovenia's highest peak, appearing as a sharp pyramid in the distance.
Dinaric Alps
Extensive karst landscapes and rugged limestone plateaus throughout Bosnia and Montenegro.
Prokletije Mountains
The Accursed Mountains on the Kosovo-Montenegro border, featuring some of the most dramatic terrain in Europe.
Pristina Approach
Aerial views of the Kosovo capital and the sprawling plains of the Kosovo Field before touchdown.
The right side is superior for landscape photography. On morning flights, the lighting hits the Alps and the Prokletije range perfectly. Look for the highest peaks roughly 45 minutes into the flight.
Lake Chiemsee
Known as the Bavarian Sea, this large lake is visible shortly after departing Munich.
Berchtesgaden Alps
The striking Watzmann peak and surrounding limestone massifs near the Austrian border.
Salzburg
The historic city and its iconic fortress can often be spotted nestled in the Salzach valley.
Pannonian Basin
The transition from the mountains to the vast, flat plains stretching toward Hungary.
Kopaonik Mountain
One of the largest mountain ranges in the Balkans, visible during the descent into Kosovo.
Sit on the left if you are on an afternoon flight to avoid direct sun glare. Keep your camera ready in the first 15 minutes for the Bavarian lakes and the Salzburg region.
