CPH → GOT
Which side of the plane to sit from Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (Copenhagen) to Gothenburg-Landvetter Airport (Gothenborg)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an unparalleled view of the Øresund Bridge, the Malmö skyline including the Turning Torso, and a continuous panorama of the Swedish west coast as you fly north.
Øresund Bridge
A spectacular aerial view of the bridge and tunnel system connecting Denmark and Sweden.
Turning Torso
Malmö's iconic twisted skyscraper is a prominent landmark visible shortly after departure from CPH.
Varberg Fortress
The historic 13th-century fortress can be spotted on the shoreline halfway through the flight.
Swedish Interior
Deep green forests and small blue lakes appear as the plane turns inland toward Landvetter Airport.
The right side is superior for landmarks. Ensure you are looking out immediately after takeoff to catch the Øresund Bridge. For morning flights, the sun will be behind you, providing perfect lighting for photography of the Swedish coastline.
Copenhagen Skyline
Excellent views of the Danish capital's historic center, canals, and Amager Strandpark immediately after takeoff.
The Kattegat
Vast views of the sea body between Denmark and Sweden, often dotted with cargo ships and ferries.
Gothenburg Archipelago
Stunning rocky islands and coastal villages visible during the descent into the Gothenburg area.
Sit on the left for the best view of Copenhagen's urban layout. During evening flights, you will catch the sunset over the sea. Watch for the 'Vinga' lighthouse island as you approach the Swedish coast.
