Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers spectacular views of the Hindu Kush range shortly after departure and provides the most scenic perspective of the Oslo Fjord during the final descent into Norway.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

Hindu Kush Mountains

Dramatic, snow-capped peaks of the Afghan highlands visible within the first 90 minutes of the flight.

🌊

Caspian Sea Coast

The deep blue waters of the Caspian meeting the rugged terrain of Azerbaijan and the Caucasus region.

🏖️

Black Sea Shoreline

Tracing the southern and western edges of the Black Sea, passing over Turkey and Romania.

🏰

Central European Cities

Aerial views of historic European urban centers as the flight crosses into Poland and Germany.

🛳️

Oslo Fjord

A stunning approach over the intricate network of islands and inlets leading directly into Oslo Lufthavn.

Sit on the left for the best morning light when departing LHE. During the final 20 minutes of the flight, keep your camera ready for the fjord approach. For night flights, this side often sees the lights of major European hubs like Warsaw or Berlin.

Right Side Highlights
7.4
🏜️

Central Asian Deserts

Expansive views of the golden sands and arid plains of Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan.

🏔️

Caucasus Mountains

Views of the high peaks of the Caucasus, including the distant silhouette of Mount Elbrus.

🌾

European Farmlands

Neat geometric patterns of the agricultural heartlands across Poland and the Baltic region.

🌲

Swedish Forests

Dense, dark green boreal forests and countless small lakes as the flight crosses Scandinavia.

🌌

Northern Lights

On night flights during winter months, this side offers the best chance to spot the Aurora Borealis.

Choose the right side if flying at night between October and March for a high chance of seeing the Northern Lights. During the day, it provides better views of the vast Russian and Central Asian interiors if the flight takes a more northerly route.
