AHOGSE

Our Recommendation
8.7

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a dramatic perspective of the Western Alps' highest massifs, including potential views of Mont Blanc, and a spectacular approach over the islands of the Kattegat.

Left Side Highlights
8.7
🌊

Corsican Coastline

The rugged western cliffs and hidden turquoise bays of the Scandola Nature Reserve.

🏔️

Western Alps

A breathtaking panorama of Europe's highest peaks, including the Mont Blanc massif on clear days.

🌲

The Black Forest

Dense evergreen canopies stretching across the rolling hills of southwestern Germany.

🇩🇰

Jutland Peninsula

The intricate patchwork of Danish farmland and the winding fjords of the western coast.

🚤

Gothenburg Archipelago

The final descent offers views of the thousands of granite islands dotting the Swedish west coast.

For the best photography, choose a seat ahead of the wing to capture the Alps without engine heat distortion. On morning flights, the sun is behind you on this side, providing perfectly lit landscapes. During the descent into GSE, stay alert as the plane crosses from Denmark to Sweden for the best sea views.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
⛰️

Corsican Highlands

The sharp, granite spires of the island's interior, often capped with snow in early spring.

💧

Italian Lakes

Glimpses of the deep blue waters of Lake Como and Lake Maggiore tucked into the Alpine foothills.

🏔️

Bernina Range

The eastern Swiss Alps featuring dramatic glaciers and high-altitude valleys near St. Moritz.

🏰

German Heartland

Views of historic cities like Frankfurt or Nuremberg depending on the specific air corridor.

🏙️

Gothenburg Cityscape

Depending on the landing direction, a clear view of the harbor, cranes, and urban center of Gothenburg.

This side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. Keep a close watch roughly 40-50 minutes into the flight for the transition from the Mediterranean into the high peaks of the Alps. Use a polarizing filter if taking photos to cut through the haze over the Po Valley.
