Which side of the plane to sit from London Gatwick Airport (London) to Gothenburg-Landvetter Airport (Gothenborg)?
Left Side of the Plane

Sit on the left for sunset views over the North Sea on evening flights. During the final 15 minutes of the flight, stay alert for the rocky coastal formations of the archipelago.
