Which side of the plane to sit from Stockholm-Arlanda Airport (Stockholm) to Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (Copenhagen)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers the most iconic urban views, including the Stockholm city center upon departure and a full panorama of Copenhagen during the final approach.
Stockholm City Center
Depending on the takeoff direction, you can see Gamla Stan and the Royal Palace nestled between Lake Mälaren and the sea.
Lake Vättern
A massive, deep blue inland sea that dominates the Swedish landscape halfway through the flight.
Scanian Countryside
The fertile, patchwork fields of Skåne, which turn vibrant yellow during the rapeseed blooming season in May.
Copenhagen Panorama
A clear view of Amager Strandpark and the historic towers of Copenhagen just before touchdown.
The Peberholm Transition
See the fascinating point where the Oresund Bridge disappears into an underwater tunnel.
The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to catch the sunset over the Danish coast. Keep your camera ready during the final 5 minutes of the flight for the best aerial views of the Danish capital's urban layout.
Stockholm Archipelago
A sprawling network of over 30,000 islands and islets visible shortly after takeoff from Arlanda.
Baltic Coastline
The rugged and indented coastline of Södermanland and Östergötland as the flight heads south.
Malmö Skyline
The Turning Torso, Scandinavia's tallest building, is clearly visible as the plane begins its descent into the Oresund region.
Oresund Bridge
A magnificent view of the 8-kilometer bridge connecting Sweden to Denmark over the blue straits.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and to see the morning sun glinting off the Baltic Sea. It is also the best side for viewing the Oresund Bridge during a standard approach to Runway 22L.
