Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides an unparalleled front-row seat to the Sunnmøre Alps at departure and the iconic Øresund Bridge approach into Copenhagen.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

Sunnmøre Alps

Dramatic jagged peaks and deep-cut fjords immediately after departure from Ålesund.

🌲

Telemark Wilderness

Dense forests and highland lakes of Southern Norway as the flight moves inland.

🌊

Oslofjord Entrance

The widening mouth of the Oslofjord meeting the Skagerrak sea near the Norwegian-Swedish border.

🇸🇪

Swedish Coastline

The rugged western coast of Sweden, including the archipelago near Gothenburg.

🌉

Øresund Bridge

Stunning aerial views of the 8km bridge and tunnel complex connecting Denmark and Sweden.

Early morning flights are spectacular for seeing the sun rise over the mountains. During the descent into CPH, keep your camera ready for the Øresund Bridge which is most visible from the left side on standard landing patterns.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🌊

Atlantic Coastline

Sweeping views of the Norwegian coastline where the fjords meet the open North Sea.

❄️

Hardangervidda Edge

The western periphery of Europe's largest high-mountain plateau, often snow-capped.

🏖️

Skagen (The Tip)

The distinctive sandy point of Northern Jutland where the Skagerrak and Kattegat seas collide.

🌬️

Anholt Offshore Wind Farm

Massive arrays of wind turbines visible in the waters between Jutland and Zealand.

🏙️
