Right Side Highlights
8.7
🏔️

Central Pyrenees

Dramatic views of the highest snow-capped peaks along the Spanish-French border.

🗼

Parisian Basin

Visuals of the dense urban layout of Paris and its surrounding forests depending on the specific airway.

⛴️

Dutch Coastline

Intricate canal systems, polders, and massive offshore wind farms near the Netherlands.

⛰️

Hardangerfjord Region

Spectacular glacier-carved valleys and deep blue waters just before the final turn into Bergen.

🏡

Bergen Approach

A close-up view of the colorful Norwegian houses and steep hillsides surrounding the Flesland area.

This is the prime side for the spectacular Norwegian fjords. For the best experience, try to sit behind the wing to ensure your view of the mountains isn't obstructed. In the summer months, the 'Midnight Sun' effect provides excellent visibility even on late-night arrivals.

Costa Blanca

Aerial views of the white sand beaches and the Mediterranean coastline immediately after takeoff.

⛰️

Western Pyrenees

The rugged transition between Spain and France, featuring the lower, forested peaks of the Basque region.

Bordeaux Vineyards

The geometric patterns of the famous French wine region visible as you cross into Western France.

🌊

English Channel

The busy maritime traffic and the distant silhouettes of the UK coastline on clear days.

Norwegian Archipelagos

A view of the scattered islands and the Atlantic edge of the Scandinavian peninsula during descent.

Choose this side if you are flying during a late afternoon or evening departure to catch the sunset over the Atlantic and North Sea. It offers better views of the open ocean and the rugged westernmost islands of the Norwegian coast.
