Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides the most scenic experience, featuring the dramatic Norwegian fjords upon departure, the Swedish archipelago mid-flight, and the iconic Øresund Bridge on approach to Copenhagen.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🏙️

Bergen Cityscape

A stunning view of the historic Bryggen area and the surrounding seven mountains immediately after takeoff.

🏔️

Hardanger Region

Aerial views of the rugged Norwegian coastline and the distant snow-capped peaks of the Hardangervidda plateau.

🇸🇪

Bohuslän Archipelago

The beautiful granite islands and coastal towns of western Sweden as the flight crosses the Skagerrak.

🌉

Øresund Bridge

A prime view of the massive bridge and tunnel system connecting Malmö and Copenhagen during the final descent.

🏰

Copenhagen Skyline

A clear perspective of the Danish capital's spires, modern architecture, and harbor front before touchdown.

For the best experience, book a seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. On morning flights, the sun will be behind you, perfectly illuminating the Norwegian mountains and the Swedish coast. This side is essential for seeing the Øresund Bridge clearly if landing on runways 04L or 22L.

Right Side Highlights
6.2
🏝️

Sotra Islands

The intricate network of islands and bridges on the Atlantic edge of Norway during the initial climb.

🚢

Skagerrak Shipping

Views of the busy maritime lanes where the North Sea meets the Baltic, often dotted with large tankers.

🏖️

North Zealand Coast

The sandy beaches and summer houses of the 'Danish Riviera' as the aircraft enters Danish airspace.

🌬️

Offshore Wind Farms

Impressive views of the Middelgrunden wind turbine array standing in the waters of the Øresund.

The right side is the preferred choice for evening flights to catch the sunset over the North Sea. While much of the mid-flight is over open water, it offers excellent views of the sunset's reflection on the sea and the coastal industrial architecture of Amager during the final approach.
