A continuous, stunning view of the snow-capped Swiss and Austrian Alps to the south.
Lake Constance (Bodensee)
A massive glacial lake marking the border between Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.
Munich & Bavaria
The red-roofed city of Munich and the distinct white ring of the Allianz Arena.
Salzburg & Foothills
Mozart's birthplace nestled perfectly where the plains meet the dramatic mountain walls.
Lake Balaton
The 'Hungarian Sea' is often visible in the distance as you cross the Transdanubian region.
The right side is the undisputed winner for nature lovers. For the most dramatic lighting on the Alpine peaks, book a late afternoon flight when the sun hits the southern slopes. During winter months, the snow-covered mountains provide a high-contrast landscape that is visible for over 45 minutes of the flight.
