Which side of the plane to sit from Toulouse-Blagnac Airport (Toulouse) to Munich Airport (Munich)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a breathtaking continuous panorama of the Alps, including the Mont Blanc massif and the Swiss Oberland, which are the highlights of this trans-European route.
The Pyrenees
Look south during the initial climb to see the snow-capped peaks of the border between France and Spain.
Mont Blanc
The highest peak in Western Europe is usually clearly visible as the flight passes south of Geneva.
Swiss Alps
An incredible sequence of high-altitude peaks including the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau.
Lake Constance
A stunning view of the lake's southern shore with the dramatic Alpstein mountains rising directly behind it.
Bavarian Alps
The jagged limestone peaks of the Ammergau and Wetterstein ranges during the approach phase.
Alpine Lakes
Spot the emerald green waters of the Walchensee and Kochelsee nestled in the mountain foothills.
The right side is the undisputed winner for scenery. Sit here to see the entire Alpine arc. Mont Blanc appears approximately 35 minutes after takeoff. Afternoon flights offer the most dramatic shadows and golden light on the mountain faces. Be sure to check the weather forecast for clear skies over Switzerland.
Airbus Factory
View the vast assembly lines where the A350 and A320 aircraft are built right after takeoff from Toulouse.
Jura Mountains
The characteristic folded ridges of the Jura range visible as the flight traverses the French-Swiss border.
Lake Geneva
Views of the northern shore including Lausanne and the rolling vineyards of the Lavaux region.
Lake Constance
The expansive northern shore of the Bodensee and the city of Friedrichshafen.
Allianz Arena
The glowing white facade of Munich's iconic football stadium is often visible during the descent into MUC.
This side is ideal for aviation fans wanting to see the Airbus facilities at the start. For the best photography of Lake Geneva and Munich, a morning flight is recommended to keep the sun behind the plane. This side avoids direct glare during the midday sun.
