Which side of the plane to sit from Bodø Airport (Bodo) to Mosjøen Airport (Kjærstad) (Mosjoen)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides a front-row seat to the dramatic meeting of the Svartisen glacier and the Norwegian Sea, followed by the jagged Helgeland archipelago.
Search flights from BOO to MJF
Svartisen Glacier
Norway's second-largest glacier, where tongues of blue ice reach down toward the coastline.
Helgeland Archipelago
A breathtaking mosaic of thousands of islands scattered across the turquoise Atlantic waters.
Meløy Coastline
Dramatic coastal scenery featuring steep cliffs and narrow fjords carved by ancient ice.
The Seven Sisters
The iconic mountain range near Alstahaug, often visible on the horizon during the southward descent.
The right side is essential for sunset flights to witness the light reflecting off the Norwegian Sea. Keep your camera ready approximately 10 to 15 minutes after departure from Bodo to capture the Svartisen glacier. Use a polarising filter if possible to cut through the sea haze and highlight the island formations.

Saltfjellet Massif
A massive mountain plateau that marks the geographical crossing of the Arctic Circle.
Okstindan Peaks
The 'Roof of Northern Norway' featuring the highest peak in the region, Oksskolten.
Mo i Rana
Aerial view of the industrial hub situated at the head of the Ranfjorden.
Vefsn Valley
Lush, deep forested valleys and winding rivers that lead the approach into Mosjoen.
Choose the left side for morning flights when the rising sun illuminates the inland peaks. This side is superior for spotting the Nordland Line railway snaking through the mountain passes and for seeing the transition from alpine tundra to lush river valleys during the final descent.
