Our Recommendation
9.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a front-row seat to Norway's most dramatic interior landscapes, including the massive Sognefjord, the Jostedalsbreen glacier, and the jagged Sunnmøre Alps, providing a high-contrast view of deep valleys and high ice fields.

Right Side Highlights
9.2
🌊

Sognefjord

The world's longest ice-free fjord, cutting deep into the heart of the Norwegian mainland.

❄️

Jostedalsbreen Glacier

Europe's largest mainland glacier, appearing as a vast and shimmering white plateau.

🏔️

Sunnmøre Alps

Breathtaking jagged mountain peaks that rise sharply from the fjord waters.

⛰️

The Seven Sisters

A famous mountain range featuring seven distinct, side-by-side peaks near the end of the route.

🏞️

Nordfjord

Deep glacial valleys and emerald green waters situated between the mountains.

The right side is the best for mountain lovers. On morning flights, the sun illuminates the glaciers and peaks, creating perfect conditions for photography. In winter, this side offers the best chance to see the 'blue hour' light hitting the snow-capped interior ranges. Sit near the front or back to avoid the wing on the high-wing Dash 8 aircraft typically used on this route.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏝️

Helgeland Coastline

Thousands of islands and islets forming an intricate mosaic along the Atlantic edge.

🏙️

Ålesund City

A stunning aerial view of the Art Nouveau city architecture spread across multiple islands.

🌉

Atlantic Ocean Road

Visible as a series of low bridges hopping between small rocky outcroppings in the sea.

🕳️

Torghatten

The legendary mountain with a natural hole through its center, visible just before landing at BNN.

Opt for the left side to see the iconic Torghatten mountain during the descent into Brønnøysund. This side is also superior for viewing the sunset over the Norwegian Sea on late afternoon or evening flights. Look for the white sand beaches of the outer islands which appear tropical from above on sunny days.
