Which side of the plane to sit from Vilnius International Airport (Vilnius) to Munich Airport (Munich)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side is favored for its immediate views of Vilnius's historic center and the expansive Masurian Lake District in Poland, offering superior natural scenery throughout the journey.
Vilnius Panoramic
Immediate views of the UNESCO-listed Old Town and the Neris River winding through the Lithuanian capital.
Masurian Lakes
An incredible network of over 2,000 lakes connected by rivers and canals across the landscape of northern Poland.
Elbe River
Watch the winding path of the Elbe River as it flows through the border regions of Saxony and Bohemia.
Bavarian Hinterland
The intricate patterns of German agricultural fields and traditional villages as you enter Bavarian airspace.
Allianz Arena
The iconic, luminous tire-shaped stadium on the northern outskirts of Munich is often visible during the final landing approach.
Keep your camera ready during the first 10 minutes for views of Vilnius. Mid-flight, the Masurian Lake District is the primary highlight. If the aircraft approaches Munich from the north, the right side offers the best angle for spotting the Allianz Arena and the northern Bavarian plains.
Lithuanian Greenery
Expansive views of the dense forests and wetlands of southern Lithuania shortly after departure.
Warsaw Distant View
On clear days, the silhouette of Warsaw's central business district and the Vistula river are visible to the south.
Sudetes Range
The Krkonoše mountains and Sněžka peak marking the natural border between Poland and the Czech Republic.
Prague Spireland
The 'City of a Hundred Spires' is often visible to the south as the flight crosses the Czech-German border region.
Northern Alps
A majestic distant view of the snow-capped Austrian and German Alps during the final descent phase.
Opt for the left side if you are flying during the day to catch the silhouette of the Alps upon descent into Munich. This side also offers better views of the Sudetes mountain range and the distant urban sprawl of Warsaw. Choose a seat away from the wing for unobstructed photos.
