Which side of the plane to sit from Aarhus Airport (Aarhus) to Oslo Lufthavn (Oslo)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior view of the dramatic transition from the flat Danish landscapes to the rugged, forested hills and jagged coastline of Southern Norway's Oslofjord region.

Djursland Peninsula
Aerial views of the white sandy beaches and dense forests of eastern Jutland immediately after takeoff from Aarhus.
Kattegat Passage
The vast blue waters between Denmark and Norway, often dotted with large international cargo ships and ferries.
Vestfold Coast
The rugged Norwegian coastline featuring thousands of small islands, skerries, and deep blue inlets near the fjord entrance.
Tønsberg & Sandefjord
Historic coastal towns and busy harbors visible during the initial descent phase into the Oslo region.
Best for late afternoon flights to catch the golden hour and sunset over the Norwegian hills. On clear days, look for the iconic Færder Lighthouse at the mouth of the Oslofjord. During winter, the contrast between the dark sea and snow-covered hills is exceptionally striking.

Anholt Island
A remote and sandy island in the middle of the Kattegat, famous for its unique desert-like landscape and seal colonies.
Swedish West Coast
The rocky archipelago of Bohuslän, Sweden, visible in the distance across the water on clear days.
Glomma River Delta
The endpoint of Norway's longest river as it meets the fjord, creating intricate silt patterns and water channels.
Oslo City View
A potential view of the Oslo city center, the Opera House, and the Barcode district if the flight path approaches from the south.
Ideal for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. Watch for the transition from the Swedish archipelago to the forested Norwegian border hills. During the final approach, the right side often provides a clearer view of the vast Lake Øyeren and the dense pine forests surrounding Gardermoen.
