DUBRYG

Which side of the plane to sit from Dublin Airport (Dublin) to Moss Airport, Rygge (Rygge)?

Our Recommendation
8.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers superior views of the English Lake District's rugged peaks and a spectacular approach along the dramatic Norwegian coastline and the western edge of the Oslo Fjord.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
☘️

Howth Head

A stunning aerial view of the peninsula and the Dublin Bay coastline immediately after takeoff.

⛰️

Lake District

Glimpse the glacial lakes and craggy fells of Cumbria, including Scafell Pike, as you cross Northern England.

🌊

Dogger Bank

Look down at the shallow regions of the North Sea, often showing distinct turquoise water patterns.

🇳🇴

Sørlandet Coast

The first sightings of Norway's rocky 'Summer Coast' featuring thousands of tiny islands and inlets.

🌲

Vestfold Forests

Dense Scandinavian woodlands and the rolling hills leading toward the mountains of the interior.

Sit on the left for morning flights to keep the sun behind the plane, providing better lighting for photos of the Lake District. Watch closely about 20-25 minutes after departure for the English coast. Upon descent into Rygge, this side provides a clearer view of the deep blue waters of the Oslo Fjord.

Dublin Cityscape

Excellent views of the River Liffey and the sprawling urban landscape of Ireland's capital.

🏗️

Tyneside

The industrial heritage and modern ports of Newcastle and the River Tyne as you exit the UK coast.

⛽

North Sea Rigs

Spot massive offshore oil and gas platforms dotting the horizon during the sea crossing.

Færder Lighthouse

The historic lighthouse marking the entrance to the Oslo Fjord, a key maritime landmark.

🇸🇪

Swedish Horizon

On clear days, see the distant coastline of Sweden across the Skagerrak strait.

Choose the right side for evening flights to catch the sunset over the horizon. This side is better for seeing the industrial heart of Northeast England and the mouth of the Oslo Fjord. During the final approach, keep an eye out for the intricate archipelago patterns near the Swedish border.
