ARN โ PUY
Which side of the plane to sit from Stockholm-Arlanda Airport (Stockholm) to Pula Airport (Pula)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior panoramic view of the Austrian Alps' highest peaks and a more dramatic approach over the islands of the Kvarner Gulf before landing in Istria.
Stockholm Archipelago
Breathtaking views of thousands of small islands and rocks scattered in the Baltic Sea immediately after takeoff.
Central European Vistas
Glimpses of the Czech landscape and potentially the outskirts of Prague depending on the specific airway used.
Eastern Alpine Range
Stunning views of the Austrian Alps, including the snow-capped peaks of the Hohe Tauern national park.
Slovenian Karst
Dense green forests and deep limestone valleys as the plane crosses into Southern Europe.
Kvarner Gulf
A spectacular view of Rijeka and the islands of Krk and Cres during the initial descent into Pula.
Sit behind the wing for unobstructed photos of the Alps. This side is particularly beautiful for morning flights as the sun illuminates the mountains from the east. Keep your camera ready about 90 minutes into the flight for the mountain crossing.
Lake Vรคttern
Views of Sweden's second-largest lake and the surrounding lush countryside during the climb phase.
Northern German Coast
The transition from the Baltic Sea to the German mainland, often passing near the island of Rรผgen.
Julian Alps
Impressive views of Mount Triglav, the highest peak in Slovenia, characterized by its jagged limestone face.
Istrian Peninsula
The rugged, heart-shaped coastline of Istria with its turquoise waters becomes visible during final approach.
Brijuni Islands
The 14 islands of the Brijuni National Park appear just off the coast shortly before touchdown.
The right side is excellent for afternoon flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. As the plane descends into Pula, watch for the Roman Arena which may be visible if the aircraft approaches from the north.
