Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the Polish coastline, the agricultural landscapes of Southern Sweden, and the spectacular rocky archipelagos along the Bohuslän coast during the descent.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏖️

Hel Peninsula

The iconic 35km long sandbar stretching into the Bay of Gdańsk immediately after takeoff.

🚜

Swedish Scania

The neatly patterned farmlands and coastal towns of Southern Sweden near Malmö and Helsingborg.

🏙️

Gothenburg Coastline

Aerial perspectives of Sweden's second-largest city and its bustling industrial port areas.

🪨

Bohuslän Archipelago

A stunning mosaic of thousands of granite islands and fishing villages along the Swedish west coast.

🌲

Norwegian Wilderness

Dense pine forests and rugged terrain as the aircraft enters Østfold county for landing.

The right side is essential for seeing the Hel Peninsula right after takeoff from GDN. Keep your camera ready about 5-10 minutes into the flight. For the best lighting on the Swedish archipelago, choose a morning flight when the sun illuminates the rocky coastline from the east.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🌊

Baltic Sea Expanse

Deep blue waters of the Central Baltic as you cross from Poland toward the Swedish coast.

🇩🇰

Distant Denmark

On clear days, the distant coastline of Zealand and the Oresund Bridge can be spotted to the west.

⚓

Skagerrak Entrance

The transition from the Baltic to the North Sea, featuring heavy maritime traffic and cargo ships.

🚢

Oslofjord Mouth

The opening of the majestic Oslofjord with views of the Færder lighthouse area during the final approach.

Sit on the left for sunset views on evening flights, as the sun dips over the Kattegat. It is also the better side for viewing the open sea and the distant horizon where the Baltic meets the North Sea.
