BCN β GOT
Which side of the plane to sit from Barcelona International Airport (Barcelona) to Gothenburg-Landvetter Airport (Gothenborg)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers superior views of the Mediterranean coastline, a distant but majestic panorama of the Alps, and a better angle of the Danish straits and the Swedish coast upon arrival.
Costa Brava
Enjoy stunning views of the turquoise Mediterranean bays and rocky cliffs as you depart Spain.
The Alpine Horizon
As the plane traverses France and Germany, the snow-capped Swiss and French Alps are visible on the horizon.
The Rhine River
Follow the winding path of Europe's most historic waterway through the German heartland.
Hamburg Cityscape
A clear view of the Elbe river, the massive port facilities, and the Alster lakes.
The Γresund Bridge
During the descent into GOT, you can often spot the engineering marvel connecting Denmark and Sweden.
The right side is ideal for morning flights as the sun illuminates the European continent. Keep your camera ready about 45 minutes into the flight for the best views of the distant Alpine peaks. As you approach Gothenburg, the rocky archipelago of the Swedish west coast becomes clearly visible.
Montserrat Massif
Immediately after takeoff from Barcelona, look for the jagged, multi-peaked rocky range to the northwest.
Massif Central
Fly over the rugged volcanic plateaus and ancient peaks of south-central France.
Parisian Outskirts
On clear days, the western sprawl of Paris and the Seine river loops are visible in the distance.
North Sea Coastline
Views of the East Frisian Islands and the rugged western coast of the Jutland Peninsula.
Choose the left side for afternoon flights to minimize direct sun glare while looking towards the Atlantic. Watch for the Pyrenees mountains early in the flight as you cross the Spanish-French border.
