KRKRYG

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior sequence of landmarks, including the island of Bornholm, the Swedish coastline, and a more dramatic perspective of the Norwegian Østfold landscape during the final approach.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Upper Silesia

A dense network of urban centers and industrial heritage sites in southern Poland shortly after takeoff.

🏝️

Bornholm Island

The plane often passes directly east of this Danish island, offering a perfect view of its rugged cliffs.

🇸🇪

Swedish Coastline

Sweeping views of the Scania region and the archipelago near Gothenburg as you track north.

🌲

Østfold Wilderness

A classic Norwegian landscape of deep evergreen forests and crystal-clear lakes as you descend toward Rygge.

✈️

Jeløya Peninsula

Dramatic final approach views of the large peninsula protecting the harbor of Moss.

Sit on the right for the best chance to spot Bornholm and the Swedish shoreline. This side is particularly spectacular during late afternoon flights when the 'golden hour' light hits the Norwegian forests and the water of the fjord. Keep your camera ready as you cross from the Baltic into Swedish airspace for high-contrast coastal shots.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏰

Kraków Departure

Bird's eye view of the Vistula River and the historic Wawel Castle area during the initial climb.

🛶

Szczecin Lagoon

Views of the massive lagoon and the mouth of the Oder River as you exit the Polish coastline.

🇩🇰

Danish Isles

Distant silhouettes of the islands of Zealand and Møn over the western Baltic Sea.

🛥️

Oslofjord Entrance

The sparkling waters of the outer Oslofjord and the western islands of Vestfold upon descent.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the eastern sun. During winter months, the low sun angle can create beautiful long shadows over the Polish plains. Watch for the Øresund Bridge in the far distance if the flight path tracks slightly west.
