Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Munich to Oslo. Left side wins at both ends of the flight. During the cruise over southern Scandinavia, the left side also tracks closer to the Swedish lake district and gives occasional glimpses of Lake Vänern and Lake Vättern on clear days as the route crosses central Sweden.

During takeoff from Munich (MUC), sit on the Left side for the best views. Munich typically departs northward on runway 26L/08R or uses the northern runway complex. Climbing out heading northwest toward Oslo, the left side gives you a clear view back toward the Bavarian Alps to the south and southeast, including the prominent Zugspitze massif on the horizon. The city of Munich itself also passes on the left during the initial turn. Notable sights include: Zugspitze and Wetterstein range to the south, Munich city center and Marienplatz area, Ammersee and Starnberger See lakes southwest of the city, Isar river valley.

When landing at Oslo Gardermoen (OSL), sit on the Left side for the best views. Oslo Gardermoen typically lands from the south on runway 01L/01R, meaning the aircraft approaches heading north. On the left side you get views over the Mjøsa lake — Norway's largest lake — and the forested Hedmarken landscape. The approach also gives left-side views toward the Romsdal highlands in the distance. Notable sights include: Lake Mjøsa (Norway's largest lake) to the west, Eidsvoll town near the airport, forested Romerike plateau, Gjøvik peninsula visible across Mjøsa.

The flight from Munich (MUC) to Oslo Gardermoen (OSL) takes Approximately 2 hours 15 minutes.

The route crosses southern Germany, then over Denmark or southern Sweden depending on routing. Key features along the path include the Danish straits and Kattegat sea, the Swedish lake district with Lake Vänern (one of Europe's largest lakes) visible to the left, and the heavily forested Swedish interior before descending into the Oslo region.
