ALCEVE

Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers unparalleled views of the dramatic Norwegian coastline and the deep blue fjords of the Arctic as you descend into Evenes, plus the possibility of seeing the midnight sun or auroras during the northern sections of the flight.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🏔️

Pyrenees Peaks

Distant views of the jagged snow-capped peaks separating Spain and France as you head north.

🗼

Parisian Basin

The sprawling urban landscape of northern France and the winding Seine valley.

🌊

Norwegian Sea

As you head north, the rugged, fragmented coastline of Nordland begins to appear to the west.

❄️

Arctic Tundra

Stark, snow-dusted landscapes and frozen plateaus once you cross the Arctic Circle.

🚢

Ofotfjorden

Breathtaking descent over deep fjords and mountainous islands near the Harstad/Narvik approach.

Choose this side for dramatic sunset views and the spectacular coastal approach. In winter, keep the cabin lights low to spot the Aurora Borealis over the North Sea. During summer, the 'Midnight Sun' will be visible from this side when flying late.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🏖️

Costa Blanca

Aerial views of Alicante's beaches and the turquoise Mediterranean immediately after takeoff.

🏙️

Benelux Hubs

Clear views of the dense urban networks and industrial heartlands of Brussels and Amsterdam.

💧

Swedish Great Lakes

The massive expanses of Lake Vänern and Lake Vättern in southern Sweden are easily identifiable.

⛰️

The Scandes

The long, glaciated mountain chain forming the backbone of the Scandinavian Peninsula.

🏔️

Kebnekaise Massif

Look for Sweden's highest peak as the plane begins its descent into the Evenes region.

The right side is superior for European geography buffs, offering a tour of major cities and the vast Swedish lakes. It is generally the cooler side during midday flights, avoiding direct sun glare, and provides a closer look at the Swedish alpine border.
