Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The Left Side offers the most dramatic views of the Taurus Mountains upon departure and provides excellent visibility of Central European landmarks and the rugged Danish coastline.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
⛰️

Taurus Mountains

Incredible views of the sharp, snow-capped peaks of the Taurus range immediately after departing Antalya.

🏙️

Sofia & Vitosha

Clear views of the Bulgarian capital and the massive Vitosha mountain dome if the flight path tracks west.

💧

Lake Balaton

The 'Hungarian Sea' is easily identifiable by its distinct turquoise color and elongated shape.

🏰

Prague Cityscape

A chance to see the Vltava River and the dense historical architecture of the Czech capital.

🌊

Jutland Coastline

The western edge of Denmark featuring long sandy beaches and the meeting of the North Sea and Skagerrak.

Choose the left side for morning departures to keep the sun behind the plane, reducing glare on the windows. The first 20 minutes are crucial for the Turkish mountain views, so stay alert after takeoff. During the descent into Norway, look for the deep blue waters of the Skagerrak transitioning into the rocky coastline.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🛶

Danube River

Follow the winding path of Europe's second-longest river as it carves through the Balkan landscape.

🏙️

Budapest Skyline

A spectacular view of the Hungarian Parliament and the bridges connecting Buda and Pest across the Danube.

🌉

Øresund Bridge

The iconic bridge-tunnel link between Copenhagen, Denmark, and Malmö, Sweden, visible before crossing the sea.

🇸🇪

Swedish Archipelago

Glimpses of the numerous small islands and rocky outcrops along the southwestern coast of Sweden.

⚓

Oslofjord Approach

Stunning aerial views of the islands and maritime traffic entering the southern reaches of the Oslofjord.

The right side is best for the final approach into Sandefjord Airport Torp, as planes often bank over the Vestfold islands. For evening flights, this side catches the sunset over the North Sea during the final hour of the journey. Keep an eye out for the Øresund Bridge as it is a major landmark visible from high altitudes.
