Our Recommendation
8.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior view of the dramatic Lake Vättern shoreline, the island of Visingsö, and the historic landscape of Lake Mälaren during the final approach.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🌊

Skälderviken Bay

Immediate views of the rugged coastline and the Kullaberg nature reserve right after takeoff from Ängelholm.

🏔️

Hallandsåsen Ridge

The prominent geological horst that marks the border between the provinces of Skåne and Halland.

💧

Lake Vättern

Stunning vistas of Sweden's second-largest lake, known for its remarkably clear blue water and steep banks.

🏝️

Visingsö Island

A long, slender island steeped in royal history, located in the center of Lake Vättern.

🛶

Lake Mälaren

The intricate network of islands and bays surrounding Stockholm, visible as the plane begins its descent.

🏰

Sigtuna

Views of Sweden's oldest town and its medieval church ruins just minutes before landing at Arlanda.

Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side is particularly spectacular in autumn when the beech forests of Hallandsåsen turn vibrant gold. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes into the flight for the best Vättern shots.

Right Side Highlights
7.4
🌲

Småland Wilderness

Endless expanses of dense spruce and pine forests punctuated by thousands of tiny, dark lakes.

🗺️

Lake Bolmen

One of the largest lakes in Southern Sweden, featuring over 365 islands and a jagged shoreline.

🚢

Göta Canal

The historic 'Blue Ribbon' of Sweden can be seen as a thin silver thread connecting the Great Lakes to the Baltic.

🏙️

Linköping & Norrköping

Aerial views of the 'Twin Cities' region, including Linköping's massive cathedral spire.

🌾

Uppland Plains

The fertile, flat agricultural heartland of East-Central Sweden that characterizes the final approach into Arlanda.

The right side is ideal for afternoon or evening flights to enjoy the sunset glow over the Småland forests. If the plane approaches Arlanda from the south, you might catch a distant glimpse of the Stockholm city skyline and the outer archipelago.
