ARNPOR

Which side of the plane to sit from Stockholm-Arlanda Airport (Stockholm) to Pori Airport (Pori)?

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior panoramic view of the vast Stockholm archipelago shortly after takeoff and provides a clear sightline to the Åland Islands and the iconic Yyteri sands upon arrival.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏝️

Stockholm Archipelago

A stunning bird's-eye view of thousands of islands and islets immediately following departure from Arlanda.

🇦🇽

Åland Islands

The autonomous Finnish archipelago province is visible to the south during the mid-flight cruise.

🏖️

Yyteri Beach

The famous 6-kilometer stretch of sand dunes near Pori, visible during the final descent.

🐍

Kokemäenjoki Delta

The winding river and its lush delta system where the Kokemäenjoki meets the sea at Pori.

Secure a window seat on the right for the most scenic experience. The view of the Stockholm archipelago is world-class, especially in the morning light. As the plane descends into Pori, the river delta and the Yyteri dunes provide excellent photo opportunities. Seasonal note: during midsummer, evening flights offer a spectacular golden hour glow over the islands.

🌲

Uppland Coastline

Dense Swedish forests and rugged northern coastlines as the plane leaves the mainland.

🌊

Sea of Åland

The deep blue waters of the Baltic Sea, often dotted with large passenger ferries crossing between Sweden and Finland.

🌬️

Tahkoluoto Wind Farm

Offshore wind turbines standing in the Gulf of Bothnia as you approach the Finnish coast.

The left side is ideal for travelers who prefer a glare-free view of the horizon during midday flights. Keep an eye out for the Swedish coastal town of Grisslehamn shortly after departure. In winter, this side offers the best chance to see the ice edge forming along the northern Gulf of Bothnia.
