Lake Vättern
View Sweden's second-largest lake, known for its deep blue, crystal-clear glacial waters.
Øresund Bridge
A breathtaking view of the massive bridge and tunnel complex linking Malmö to Copenhagen.
Copenhagen & Malmö
See the urban sprawl and harbor architecture of the two neighboring Scandinavian cities.
Benelux Urban Corridor
Fly over the densely populated and industrial heartlands of Antwerp and Brussels.
Paris Cityscape
On many approach patterns to Orly, the Eiffel Tower and the Seine are visible to the north.
The right side is the clear winner for landmark spotting. Be ready with your camera about 20-30 minutes after takeoff for the Øresund Bridge. On the final descent into Paris, if the wind is from the west (standard), the right side provides the iconic view of the Eiffel Tower and Montmartre as the plane circles the city to line up with the Orly runways.

Stockholm Archipelago
Upon departure, view thousands of pine-fringed islands scattered across the Baltic Sea.
Swedish Baltic Coast
Follow the rugged coastline of southern Sweden, often passing near the island of Öland.
German Lowlands
The flight path crosses the fertile, geometric patchwork of the North German Plain.
Ardennes Forest
Glimpse the rolling hills and dense woodlands stretching across the Belgian-French border.
Champagne Region
As you descend into France, look for the orderly rows of world-famous vineyards near Reims.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is particularly scenic during the first 30 minutes if the plane departs towards the east before banking south. Keep an eye out for the distinct star-shaped fortifications of smaller European towns during the mid-flight cruise over Germany and Belgium.
