Flights to Munich
Munich, the capital of Germany’s Bavaria region, offers a seamless blend of history and modern culture. No visit is complete without a trip to the lavish Nymphenburg Palace to discover the city’s royal past, followed by river surfing in the middle of a park at Eisbachwelle. Add a stroll through the nearby rolling hills and a few steins of weizenbier – wheat beer – in the local beer halls, and you’ve got all the ingredients for the perfect Bavarian break.

Munich flight FAQs
A flight from London Heathrow to Munich Airport takes just under two hours.
The most popular time to visit is in the summer months, so book your flights for spring or autumn to enjoy milder temperatures, blooming gardens and a lively atmosphere. Munich is also particularly popular during late September and early October when the world-renowned Oktoberfest takes place.
You can make a trip to Munich fit any budget. Explore the vast English Garden for a tranquil escape, with its meadows, lakes and beer gardens offering a budget-friendly day out. For food, the Viktualienmarkt offers cheap, local cuisine. Many museums, like the Munich Stadtmuseum, have discounted or free entry on certain days. Dive into local life with a picnic by the Isar River or enjoy a bike ride along the city's cycle-friendly paths.
Once you touch down at Munich Airport, you’re only a 40-minute drive from the city centre. The cheapest way to travel is by using the airport bus or one of the regular S-Bahn trains, which will take you to the centre of town in about 50 minutes. Taxis can easily be found outside the airport terminal for a faster ride to your destination.
You can also hire a car with British Airways if you want to see more of what Germany has to offer. You’ll receive great benefits, with all mandatory charges included and 24-hour customer support, plus you’ll collect Avios points on every rental.
Munich’s Bavarian traditions and beer halls are just the start of its attractions. Visit the Asamkirche, an ornate church built by the Asam brothers in the 18th century, to experience an artistic sanctuary in the heart of the city. To explore Munich’s artsy side, the Museum Brandhorst showcases a diverse collection of contemporary art, housed in a building with a striking facade. Take a guided tour of Bavaria Filmstadt to see the film studios where iconic German and international films and TV shows are produced. Then visit the Olympic Park, the site of the 1972 Summer Olympics, for its iconic structures, expansive green spaces and panoramic views of the city.
