Which side of the plane to sit from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (Amsterdam) to Växjö Kronoberg Airport (Vaxjo)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the IJsselmeer, the iconic Copenhagen skyline, the Øresund Bridge, and the dense lake-filled landscapes of Småland as you descend into Växjö.
IJsselmeer
Stunning aerial view of the Markermeer, IJsselmeer, and the Houtribdijk dam stretching across the water.
Øresund Bridge
The famous combined railway and motorway bridge linking Denmark and Sweden, often seen clearly on this flight path.
Copenhagen Skyline
A panoramic view of the Danish capital, including the harbor and Amager island, before crossing into Sweden.
Malmö City
The 'Turning Torso' skyscraper and the industrial-meets-modern urban layout of Sweden's third-largest city.
Småland Lake District
The quintessential Swedish landscape of thousands of tiny islands and deep blue lakes surrounded by pine forests.
The right side is essential for seeing the Øresund crossing. For the best photography, choose a seat behind the wing to capture the contrast between the Baltic Sea and the Swedish coastline. Late afternoon flights provide a golden hue over the Småland forests.
Wadden Sea
Vibrant tidal flats and the Dutch Frisian Islands including Texel and Vlieland visible shortly after takeoff.
Kiel Canal
The world's most frequented artificial waterway cutting through the German state of Schleswig-Holstein.
Great Belt Bridge
A distant view of the massive suspension bridge connecting the Danish islands of Zealand and Funen.
Lake Bolmen
One of Sweden's largest lakes, signifying the entry into the deep forested interior of the Småland region.
Opt for the left side during morning flights to avoid harsh direct sunlight. Keep your camera ready within the first 15 minutes for the intricate patterns of the Dutch coast and again 40 minutes in for the transition into Scandinavia.
