Which side of the plane to sit from Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport (Bologna) to Moss Airport, Rygge (Rygge)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers the most dramatic views of the high-altitude Swiss Alps and a spectacular perspective of the Oslofjord during the descent into Norway.
The Central Alps
Breathtaking views of the glaciated peaks of the Bernese Oberland and the Swiss massif shortly after clearing the Italian border.
Lake Constance
A massive body of water known as Bodensee, marking the junction of Germany, Switzerland, and Austria.
Frankfurt am Main
The 'Mainhattan' skyline and Germany's largest aviation hub are typically visible during the mid-flight cruise.
The Wadden Sea
As the flight crosses Northern Germany towards Denmark, you can see the unique tidal flats along the North Sea coast.
Oslofjord Inlets
The final approach provides a stunning look at the narrow waterways and densely forested islands of Southern Norway.
For the best experience, select a seat forward of the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block the view of the Alps. On afternoon flights, the sun will be behind you or to the west, providing excellent lighting for photos of the Norwegian coastline. Watch for the 'Bastø' ferries crossing the fjord just before landing.
The Dolomites
Visible shortly after departure from Bologna, these jagged limestone peaks offer a sharp contrast to the Po Valley.
Bavarian Plains
Views of the lush green fields of Southern Germany and the sprawling metropolitan area of Munich.
The Baltic Sea
A clear view of the shipping lanes and the numerous Danish islands like Lolland and Falster.
Øresund Bridge
On easterly flight paths, you can spot the engineering marvel connecting Copenhagen, Denmark to Malmö, Sweden.
Swedish Archipelago
The rugged, rocky coastline of Bohuslän in Sweden is visible just before the plane turns toward the Rygge approach.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight, which can make the cabin hot and the windows reflective. Keep an eye out for the Øresund Bridge about 30-40 minutes before landing; it is a key landmark that signals you are entering the final leg of the journey into Scandinavia.
