Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Munich to Copenhagen. Left side wins both ends of the flight. During the cruise phase heading northwest over Germany, the left side also tracks closer to the coastline features as you approach Denmark, including glimpses of the Danish islands and the Kattegat. Right side has little to distinguish it on either end.

During takeoff from Munich (MUC), sit on the Left side for the best views. Munich typically departs northbound on runway 08R/26L or uses the northern runways. Climbing out northward, the left (west) side gives you a clear look back toward Munich city center and the Bavarian foothills. The right side faces east toward less distinctive terrain. Notable sights include: Munich city center and Marienplatz area, Bavarian foothills to the southwest, Ammersee and Starnberger See lakes visible to the southwest, English Garden park layout visible in the city.

When landing at Kastrup (CPH), sit on the Left side for the best views. Copenhagen's Kastrup airport sits on the island of Amager, and aircraft typically approach from the north or northwest on runway 04L/22R or 04R/22L. On a northbound approach, the left side faces west over the Øresund strait and gives you the Øresund Bridge connecting Denmark to Sweden, which is one of the most distinctive landmarks in northern Europe from the air. Notable sights include: Øresund Bridge connecting Copenhagen to Malmö, Øresund strait waters, Copenhagen city center and harbor, Malmö cityscape across the strait in Sweden.

The flight from Munich (MUC) to Kastrup (CPH) takes Approximately 1 hour 40 minutes.

The route passes over central Germany including the Leipzig and Berlin regions to the east, then crosses into northern Germany over Schleswig-Holstein's flat agricultural plains and lake district, before crossing the Danish border and tracking over the Danish islands including Funen and Zealand, with the Kattegat and Baltic Sea visible to the east
