BGO → MOL
Which side of the plane to sit from Bergen Airport Flesland (Bergen) to Molde Airport (Molde)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for Norway's dramatic inland scenery, including deep fjord crossings and the jagged peaks of the Sunnmøre Alps.
Sognefjord Crossing
An incredible aerial perspective of the world's longest ice-free fjord shortly after takeoff from Bergen.
Jostedalsbreen Glimpse
On clear days, the massive white expanse of the Jostedalsbreen glacier is visible to the east.
Sunnmøre Alps
A breathtaking sequence of jagged, snow-capped peaks rising directly from the deep blue fjords.
Hjørundfjord
One of the most secluded and beautiful fjords in Norway, tucked between high mountain walls.
Molde Panorama
The famous view of the 222 mountain peaks during the final descent into Molde Airport.
The right side is essential for fjord lovers. To see the 'Molde Panorama' peaks most clearly, choose a morning flight when the sun illuminates the mountain faces from the south. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes into the flight as the plane crosses the Sognefjord and enters the mountainous Sunnmøre region.
North Sea Horizon
Expansive views of the Atlantic coastline and the rugged edge of the Norwegian continental shelf.
Solund Archipelago
A complex network of thousands of small islands and skerries at the mouth of the Sognefjord.
Stad Peninsula
The westernmost point of mainland Norway, famous for its treacherous waters and dramatic sea cliffs.
Ålesund Islands
Views of the outer islands like Giske and Godøy before the final turn toward Molde.
Sit on the left for the best sunset views on evening flights. This side is also excellent for spotting the remote coastal lighthouses that dot the western fringe of the country. If the flight path takes a more seaward route, you will see the stark contrast between the ocean and the rocky coast.
