AES → VNO
Which side of the plane to sit from Ålesund Airport (Alesund) to Vilnius International Airport (Vilnius)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers the most dramatic views of the jagged Sunnmøre Alps immediately after departure and provides a superior angle for the vast Swedish lakes and Gotland island.
Sunnmøre Alps
Breathtaking views of razor-sharp peaks and deep-cut fjords like Hjørundfjorden right after takeoff.
Lake Vänern & Vättern
Panoramic views of Europe's largest lakes while transiting the Swedish heartland.
Gotland Island
The distinct limestone cliffs and medieval layout of Visby visible in the middle of the Baltic Sea.
Vilnius Old Town
Red-tiled roofs and the Neris river visible during the final banking maneuvers into VNO.
Have your camera ready immediately after wheels up; the climb out of AES over the fjords is one of the most scenic in Europe. For evening flights, you will witness a spectacular sunset over the Baltic Sea from this side.
Sunnmøre Coastline
The intricate network of islands and bridges connecting the Ålesund archipelago.
Dovrefjell-Sunndalsfjella
Distal views of the high plateaus and wild mountain ranges of central Norway.
Stockholm Archipelago
If the flight path tracks north, thousands of tiny islands are visible along the Swedish coast.
Aukštaitija National Park
Dense pine forests and lake clusters as you enter Lithuanian airspace from the north.
Choose the left side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side is also preferable if the flight plan takes a more northerly route over the Swedish capital, offering views of the Baltic coastline's complexity.
