Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers iconic views of the Øresund Bridge during departure and the spectacular Norwegian archipelago upon arrival at Kristiansand.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌉

Øresund Bridge

A stunning view of the architectural marvel connecting Copenhagen to Malmö, including the artificial island of Peberholm.

🏝️

Anholt Island

In the middle of the Kattegat, you may spot this isolated island known for its unique 'desert' landscape.

📍

Grenen (Skagen)

On a clear day, see the northernmost tip of Denmark where the Kattegat and Skagerrak seas visibly collide.

🇳🇴

Norwegian Archipelago

Dramatic approach over the 'Skjærgård', featuring thousands of rocky granite islands and hidden coves near Kjevik.

The right side is the definitive choice for landscape photographers. For the best view of the Øresund Bridge, hope for a departure on Runway 04R or 22R. During the winter months, the midday sun provides a low, golden light that makes the Norwegian coastline particularly photogenic.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏙️

Copenhagen Cityscape

Panoramic views of the Indre By district, including the Round Tower and the colorful buildings of Nyhavn shortly after takeoff.

🌾

Zealand Landscape

The flat, agricultural heartland of Denmark's largest island, showcasing the classic Danish 'patchwork' field patterns.

🏗️

Aalborg Port

As the flight crosses Northern Jutland, look for the industrial harbor and the Limfjord bridge crossing near Aalborg.

🌅

Skagerrak Sunset

On evening flights, this side catches the sun setting over the North Sea during the crossing between Denmark and Norway.

Sit here if you are flying in the late afternoon or evening to witness the sunset over the sea. If the flight departs toward the west, you will get an excellent view of the Roskilde Fjord and the Viking Ship Museum area.
