BUD → NYO
Which side of the plane to sit from Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport (Budapest) to Stockholm Skavsta Airport (Stockholm)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior view of the Budapest skyline upon departure and the intricate Swedish archipelago during the final descent into Skavsta.
Budapest Cityscape
Aerial view of the Danube River, the Parliament building, and the historic Buda Castle shortly after takeoff.
Western Tatras
The rugged peaks of the Carpathian Mountains along the border of Slovakia and Poland.
Central Polish Lowlands
A vast geometric patchwork of colorful agricultural fields stretching across central Poland.
Puck Bay
The shallow western part of the Bay of Gdańsk and the thin Hel Peninsula extending into the Baltic Sea.
Södermanland Archipelago
Thousands of small forested islands and rocky outcrops as the plane approaches Nyköping.
For the best experience, book a window seat away from the wing. On evening flights, the left side enjoys spectacular sunsets over the Baltic Sea. Watch closely approximately 15 minutes after takeoff for the best views of the Danube's northern bend.
Danube Bend
The dramatic U-turn of the Danube River near Visegrád, north of Budapest.
High Tatras
The highest range of the Carpathians, featuring Gerlachovský štít, visible to the east.
Kraków & Vistula
Views of the historic Polish city and the winding Vistula River as the flight heads north.
Gdańsk Port
The major industrial shipyards and historic harbor of the Polish 'Tricity' area.
Gotland & Öland
In clear weather, the large Swedish islands of Gotland and Öland are visible across the Baltic waters.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. It provides a better angle for viewing the High Tatras' snow-capped peaks in winter. Keep your camera ready about 40 minutes into the flight for the best mountain vistas.
