MUC → TUN
Which side of the plane to sit from Munich Airport (Munich) to Tunis Carthage International Airport (Tunis)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers a spectacular sequence of European highlights, including the majestic Bavarian Alps, the crystal-blue waters of Lake Garda, and a birds-eye view of the historic Italian coastline and Rome, concluding with the urban landscape of Tunis.
Bavarian Alps
Immediate views of Germany's highest peaks, including the Zugspitze, shortly after departing Munich.
Lake Garda
A stunning view of Italy's largest lake, easily recognizable by its narrow northern fjord-like shape widening into the south.
Rome & Vatican City
As you fly south, the sprawl of the Eternal City, the Tiber River, and the dome of St. Peter's Basilica are frequently visible.
Sardinia & Corsica
Look west across the Tyrrhenian Sea to spot the mountainous outlines of these large Mediterranean islands.
Tunis City & Carthage
A magnificent view of the Lake of Tunis, the modern city skyline, and the ancient ruins of Carthage during the final descent.
The right side is the 'city side' for this route. It provides the best perspective of the Italian lakes and the metropolitan sprawl of Rome. During the approach into Tunis Carthage Airport, this side typically looks directly over the historic ruins and the blue-and-white village of Sidi Bou Said. Afternoon flights may face some sun glare, so bring polarized sunglasses for the best experience.
The Dolomites
Breathtaking views of the jagged, pale peaks of the Italian Alps shortly after crossing the border from Austria.
Venice Lagoon
On clear days, the distinctive shape of Venice and its surrounding islands can be seen shimmering in the distance to the east.
Apennine Ridge
The rugged mountainous backbone of Italy, offering deep valleys and high-altitude terrain views throughout the mid-flight.
Mount Vesuvius
If the flight path tracks slightly inland, the iconic silhouette of the volcano near Naples is visible against the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Cape Bon Peninsula
The first sight of Africa, featuring the dramatic cliffs and turquoise waters of the northeastern tip of Tunisia.
The left side is ideal for morning flights as the sun will be behind you or directly above, reducing glare on the window. Watch for the dramatic transition from the snow-capped Alps to the Mediterranean blue. For the best views of the Tunisian coast upon arrival, choose a seat well ahead of the wing to avoid engine heat distortion.
