VIE → LUX
Which side of the plane to sit from Vienna International Airport (Vienna) to Luxembourg-Findel International Airport (Luxemburg)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior viewing experience with distant views of the Alps and prominent Bavarian lakes.
Northern Limestone Alps
Continuous panoramic views of the jagged peaks extending along the southern horizon for much of the cruise.
Chiemsee
Bavaria's largest lake, featuring the Herrenchiemsee palace island, clearly visible south of the flight path.
Munich Skyline
Spot the distinct red roofs of the city and the Allianz Arena stadium while flying over Bavaria.
Black Forest
Dense, rolling evergreen landscapes of southwestern Germany appearing shortly before the final descent.
Hohenzollern Castle
A fairytale fortress perched on a hill, occasionally visible on clear days in the Swabian Jura.
Best viewed during morning flights for well-lit mountain peaks to the south. Sit behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Bavarian lakes and the Alpine range. In winter, the snow-capped peaks are particularly striking.
Vienna Woods
Immediate views of the forested hills surrounding Vienna right after takeoff from Schwechat.
Danube River
Follow the winding blue ribbon of the Danube as it passes through the scenic Wachau valley.
Regensburg
Observe the medieval UNESCO World Heritage city center where the Regen and Danube rivers meet.
Stuttgart Basin
The city layout is uniquely tucked into a bowl-shaped valley surrounded by steep vineyards.
Hunsrück Mountains
Rugged, forested ridges that define the landscape as you cross the Rhine toward Luxembourg.
Ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Rhine valley. On the final approach into LUX, look for the deep valleys of the Alzette and Pétrusse rivers if the plane is landing from the east. Sit forward of the wing to see the river confluences clearly.
