Fฤgฤraศ Mountains
Witness the highest peaks of Romania, often snow-capped, immediately after departing Sibiu.
Lake Balaton
Glimpse the turquoise waters of the largest lake in Central Europe while crossing Hungary.
Austrian Alps
A long, continuous view of the Northern Limestone Alps as the plane enters Austrian airspace.
Chiemsee
Known as the 'Bavarian Sea', this large lake is a landmark during the descent into Munich.
Southern Munich
Views of the city's green southern outskirts and the Isar river valley before landing.
Choose a window seat forward of the wing for unobstructed views of the Alps. Morning flights provide excellent side-lighting for the mountains, though glare can be intense. In winter, the snow cover on the Fฤgฤraศ range is particularly dramatic. Look out early for the Transylvanian Saxon villages near Sibiu.

Transylvanian Plateau
The rolling hills and historic landscapes of the Sibiu and Mureศ regions.
Budapest Skyline
On many flight paths, the Hungarian capital and its iconic bridges are visible to the north.
The Danube
Track the winding path of Europe's second-longest river as it flows through Austria and Germany.
Passau
See the historic 'City of Three Rivers' where the Inn and Ilz join the Danube.
Allianz Arena
Depending on the landing pattern, the glowing white stadium is often visible on the right during final approach.
The right side is ideal for city spotters, offering better views of Budapest and the Danube confluence at Passau. If the flight arrives from the north or east, you might spot the Allianz Arena. This side avoids direct southern sunlight for most of the westward journey, making it better for photography without glare.
