TBS → MUC
Which side of the plane to sit from Tbilisi International Airport (Tbilisi) to Munich Airport (Munich)?
Left Side of the Plane
While both sides offer stunning mountain views, the Left Side wins for its incredible approach into Munich, providing a closer look at the Austrian and Bavarian Alps and the winding Danube River.
Lesser Caucasus
Rolling hills and verdant valleys of southern Georgia visible shortly after takeoff from TBS.
Black Sea Horizon
Expansive views of the deep blue waters and the distant Turkish coastline to the south.
Transylvanian Alps
The rugged, snow-dusted peaks of the Southern Carpathian Mountains as you cross Romania.
Belgrade and the Danube
Aerial perspective of the Serbian capital where the Sava and Danube rivers meet.
Austrian Alps
Breathtaking views of the high Alpine peaks during the descent, especially dramatic in winter.
Choose a window seat behind the wing to avoid obstructing your view of the Alps during descent. Afternoon flights provide excellent lighting for the mountain ranges. Keep your camera ready as you enter Austrian airspace for the most dramatic landscapes.
Greater Caucasus
Dominant views of the highest mountain range in Europe, including the towering Mount Elbrus to the north.
Crimean Peninsula
Depending on the specific flight corridor, views of the northern Black Sea coastline.
Transylvanian Plateau
The mystical landscapes of central Romania, dotted with historic towns and dense forests.
Lake Balaton
The largest freshwater lake in Central Europe, easily recognizable by its elongated shape in Hungary.
Bavarian Landscape
Neat patches of farmland, forests, and small German villages as you approach Munich Airport.
Sit on the right for the best chance to see the iconic peaks of the Greater Caucasus during the first 30 minutes of flight. Morning departures offer the clearest visibility and backlighting for the northern scenery. Watch for the distinct turquoise hue of Lake Balaton while over Hungary.
