8.5
🏖️

Costa Brava

Breathtaking views of the Spanish coastline and the Mediterranean Sea immediately after takeoff.

🏔️

French Alps

Distances views of the snow-capped Alpine peaks to the east while traversing French airspace.

🚲

Low Countries

Clear views of the reclaimed land (polders) and the intricate delta region of the Netherlands.

🇩🇰

Jutland Peninsula

The western edge of Denmark and the transition from the North Sea to the Skagerrak strait.

🚢

Hardangerfjord

One of Norway's most iconic fjords, featuring deep blue waters and steep mountain walls during descent.

🏠

Bergen Cityscape

If the flight approaches from the south, you'll see the colorful houses and the Seven Mountains surrounding Bergen.

For the best experience, sit on the right side to capture the dramatic Norwegian fjords during the descent. Morning flights offer the best lighting for the French Alps and the Dutch coast. Be sure to have your camera ready about 30 minutes before landing for the most scenic fjord views.

Montserrat & Catalonia

🌋

Massif Central

Cruising over the ancient volcanic landscapes and plateaus of south-central France.

🌊

Stavanger Coastline

🏝️

North Sea Islands

Scattered archipelagos along the southwestern Norwegian shore as you approach Bergen.

The left side is excellent for catching the sunset on late afternoon or evening flights. During the final approach into BGO, look for the 'Sotra' island chain. To avoid glare, choose this side for northbound morning flights as the sun will be on the right.
