Our Recommendation
8.7

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior vantage point for the dramatic Norwegian fjords shortly after takeoff, the intricate islands of the Danish archipelago, and the stunning Elbe Sandstone Mountains on the approach into the Czech Republic.

Left Side Highlights
8.7
🏔️

Hardangerfjord Region

Breathtaking views of deep blue fjords and snow-capped peaks in Southern Norway shortly after departure from BGO.

🇩🇰

Danish Archipelago

A bird's-eye view of the Great Belt Bridge and the scattered islands between Jutland and Zealand.

🏞️

Saxon Switzerland

Dramatic sandstone rock formations and deep canyons along the Elbe river near the German-Czech border.

🏰

Prague Historic Center

If the flight approaches via Runway 24, passengers get a spectacular view of the Vltava River and Prague Castle.

🏙️

Berlin Skyline

On clear days, the distant silhouette of the Berlin TV Tower and the city's vast urban sprawl can be spotted to the east.

To maximize your view of the fjords, choose a seat ahead of the wing. For morning flights, the sun will be on the right, providing perfect lighting for the left-side landscapes. Keep your camera ready roughly 20 minutes before landing for the most scenic mountain transitions.

Right Side Highlights

🌊

North Sea Horizon

Vast, open views of the North Sea as the plane tracks south along the coastline of Norway.

🏖️

Jutland West Coast

The long, continuous sandy beaches and dunes of western Denmark stretching toward the horizon.

⚓

Hamburg & Elbe River

Clear views of the massive industrial port of Hamburg and the winding path of the Elbe river through Northern Germany.

⛰️

Ore Mountains

The rolling, forested ridges of the Erzgebirge mountains marking the natural border into Bohemia.

🏭

Kladno Industrial Zone

The transition from the lush Bohemian forests to the industrial outskirts of the Prague metropolitan area.

The right side is ideal for afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over the North Sea and Germany. It offers a great perspective of the massive scale of the Port of Hamburg. During the final descent, you can often see the airport layout before the plane makes its final turn for landing.
