BUDGSE

Our Recommendation
8.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a front-row seat to the historical architecture of Budapest and Prague, the engineering marvel of the Øresund Bridge, and the rugged beauty of the Swedish west coast.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
🏙️

Budapest Cityscape

Witness the dramatic bend of the Danube and the Hungarian Parliament building right after takeoff.

🏰

Prague & Central Bohemia

Excellent views of the Vltava River and the dense urban core of the Czech capital mid-flight.

🌉

Øresund Bridge

The spectacular link between Copenhagen and Malmö is visible as you cross from Denmark into Sweden.

🏝️

Gothenburg Archipelago

Dozens of smooth, rocky islands and coastal villages appear during the final descent into the region.

Opt for the left side on evening flights to enjoy the sun setting over the Kattegat sea during your approach. This side also offers the best view of the Øresund Bridge, a landmark that defines the entry into Scandinavia. Keep your camera ready as you depart Budapest for a perfect shot of the river dividing Buda and Pest.

Right Side Highlights
7.4
🏔️

High Tatra Mountains

Snow-capped peaks along the border of Slovakia and Poland provide a sharp contrast to the surrounding plains.

🌊

Baltic Sea Expanse

Deep blue waters dotted with occasional cargo ships and the distant coastline of Northern Europe.

🇩🇰

Island of Bornholm

This isolated Danish territory in the Baltic Sea is a prominent landmark often seen from high altitudes.

🌲

Scandinavian Woodlands

The transition into Sweden is marked by endless tracts of pine forests and shimmering glacial lakes.

The right side is best for morning flights to see the High Tatras illuminated by the rising sun. It also offers a clearer view of the deep interior forests of Sweden as you head north. Look for the island of Bornholm which stands out as a distinct green patch in the middle of the dark Baltic waters.
