Which side of the plane to sit from Keflavik International Airport (Keflavik) to Billund Airport (Billund)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers superior views of the Reykjavik metropolitan area during departure and a higher probability of spotting the Faroe and Shetland Islands during the transit across the North Atlantic.
Reykjavík Panorama
Aerial view of the world's northernmost capital, featuring the Hallgrímskirkja spire and the colorful rooftops of the city center.
Mount Esja
The majestic volcanic range that dominates the skyline north of Reykjavik, often snow-capped well into the spring.
Faroe Islands
Weather permitting, glimpse the dramatic vertical cliffs and emerald green plateaus of this remote North Atlantic archipelago.
Shetland Islands
Observation of the rugged coastline and northernmost reaches of the British Isles as the flight tracks toward mainland Europe.
Jutland West Coast
The transition from the North Sea to the long, sandy beaches of Denmark's western shore near Hvide Sande.
Book a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. On clear days, look north toward the Snæfellsnes Peninsula shortly after takeoff. For evening flights, the left side faces north, which provides the best opportunity to witness the Aurora Borealis during the winter months.
Reykjanes Peninsula
Vast, moss-covered lava fields and recent volcanic activity zones near the Fagradalsfjall eruption site.
Blue Lagoon Area
The milky-blue geothermal waters and the Svartsengi power plant are visible shortly after departure from KEF.
Offshore Wind Farms
Massive clusters of turbines in the North Sea, showcasing Denmark's commitment to renewable energy as you approach the coast.
Ringkøbing Fjord
A large, shallow lagoon separated from the North Sea by a thin strip of land, marking the entry into Danish airspace.
Danish Countryside
The classic 'patchwork quilt' appearance of Jutland's highly organized agricultural fields and small villages.
Sit on the right side for the best views of the geothermal landscapes immediately after takeoff. During the descent into Billund, this side offers a great perspective of the flat, rural terrain of central Jutland. Note that the sun will be on this side for most of the flight if traveling during the day, so keep your window shade down when not viewing to avoid glare.
