HAU β BRE
Which side of the plane to sit from Haugesund Airport (Haugesund) to Bremen Airport (Bremen)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior vantage point for the dramatic Norwegian fjord systems and the rugged southwestern coastline shortly after takeoff, followed by a scenic approach over the Weser river valley.
Boknafjorden
A massive fjord system south of Haugesund featuring deep blue waters and intricate island patterns.
Stavanger Peninsula
Clear views of the Stavanger city area and the surrounding archipelago of southwestern Norway.
Jæren Coastline
Unique aerial perspective of Norway's longest sandy beaches and flat agricultural landscapes.
Wadden Sea
The UNESCO-listed intertidal zone where the North Sea meets the German coast during the descent.
Weser River Estuary
The winding path of the Weser river as the aircraft aligns for its final approach into Bremen.
Sit on the left (port) for the best views of the Norwegian coastline during the first 20 minutes of flight. For morning departures, this side avoids direct glare, providing better clarity for photography of the fjords. Keep your camera ready immediately after wheels-up from Haugesund.
Open North Sea
Vast, unobstructed views of the North Sea horizon and frequent sightings of large cargo vessels.
Offshore Wind Farms
Clusters of massive wind turbines situated in the German Bight area of the North Sea.
East Frisian Islands
A chain of barrier islands including Wangerooge and Spiekeroog visible during the descent.
Wilhelmshaven
Germany's primary naval base and deep-water port visible on the western side of the Jade Bight.
The right side is ideal for sunset flights to catch the colors reflecting off the North Sea. It provides excellent views of the offshore wind energy infrastructure and the Frisian Islands. During descent into Bremen, look for the Jade Bight bay and the industrial landscapes of Lower Saxony.
