AMS → OSL
Which side of the plane to sit from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (Amsterdam) to Oslo Lufthavn (Oslo)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side offers a superior perspective for the final descent into Oslo, providing sweeping views of the Oslofjord, the city skyline, and the surrounding forested hills.
Markerwaard Polders
The intricate patterns of reclaimed land and dikes north of Amsterdam immediately after departure.
Storebælt Bridge
On clear days, the massive Great Belt Fixed Link connecting the Danish islands of Zealand and Funen.
Oslofjord Islands
A stunning mosaic of forested islands and summer cabins scattered throughout the blue waters of the fjord.
Oslo Cityscape
A panoramic view of the Norwegian capital, including the Opera House and the Aker Brygge waterfront.
Holmenkollen
The iconic ski jump tower standing prominently on the hills overlooking the city during the final approach.
The Right Side is essential for the approach into OSL; sit behind the wing for an unobstructed view of the fjord. Morning flights are ideal as the sun illuminates the Norwegian coast from the east, highlighting the terrain's texture.
Wadden Sea Islands
The chain of Frisian Islands stretching along the Dutch and German coast, visible shortly after takeoff.
Jutland West Coast
The long, sandy coastline of western Denmark and the vast Limfjord cutting through the peninsula.
Skagerrak Crossing
The deep strait between Denmark and Norway, often dotted with international shipping vessels.
Telemark Highlands
The rugged, rolling hills of southern Norway as the aircraft begins its initial descent.
Opt for this side during sunset flights to catch the golden hour reflecting off the North Sea. It provides a better view of the coastal transition from flat Dutch polders to the rocky Norwegian landscape.
