Norwegian Archipelago
A stunning view of the thousands of small islands and rocky outcrops near the southern tip of Norway.

Sit on the left for the most scenic arrival. On morning flights, this side is away from the direct sun, providing perfect lighting for photography of the Norwegian coastline. Watch for the 'Skerries' as you cross from the North Sea into Norwegian airspace, which marks a dramatic change in scenery.
