Central Pyrenees
Stunning vistas of the high-altitude peaks and glacial valleys marking the border between Spain and France.
Loire Valley
The winding 'Garden of France' featuring historic river systems and vast agricultural patchwork landscapes.
Jutland Coastline
The continuous sandy beaches and dunes of Denmark's western shore meeting the North Sea.
Norwegian Archipelago
As you head north of 60 degrees, watch for the intricate maze of islands and deep fjords characteristic of the Norwegian coast.
For morning flights, the left side is ideal as the sun remains on the right side of the aircraft, reducing glare and providing better lighting for photography. In the winter months, if the flight is at night, sit on this side for a potential glimpse of the Aurora Borealis as you head into the higher latitudes of Norway. Ensure you are seated away from the wing to see the transition from the North Sea to the mountainous Norwegian terrain.

Gulf of Lion
Clear views of the French Mediterranean coast and the mouth of the Rhone River.
European Urban Centers
Glimpses of major metropolitan areas like Paris or Brussels depending on the specific air traffic control corridor.
The Oresund Region
Distant views of the bridge and islands connecting the Scandinavian peninsula to continental Europe.
Trondheimsfjord
Beautiful views of the deep blue fjord and surrounding evergreen forests during the final descent into Værnes.
The right side offers excellent views of the Mediterranean coastline shortly after takeoff from Alicante. If the flight path takes a more easterly route, you may see the edge of the Alps in the distance over France. During the final approach to Trondheim (TRD), the right side often provides a better perspective of the airport's unique location right on the edge of the water and the rolling hills of the Trøndelag region.
