LPL → TRF
Which side of the plane to sit from Liverpool John Lennon Airport (Liverpool) to Sandefjord Airport, Torp (Sandefjord)?
Left Side of the Plane
The Left Side (Port) offers a superior perspective of the Liverpool city skyline and football stadiums upon departure, followed by the rugged cliffs of the East Yorkshire coast and a stunning approach over the Norwegian archipelago.
Liverpool City & Stadiums
Clear views of the historic waterfront, the Liver Building, and the iconic football grounds of Anfield and Goodison Park.
Yorkshire Dales
Aerial vistas of the rolling green hills, stone walls, and limestone pavements of the northern English countryside.
Flamborough Head
The dramatic white chalk cliffs and lighthouse marking the edge of the UK before heading over the North Sea.
Vestfold Archipelago
A breathtaking view of thousands of tiny granite islands and 'skerries' that dot the southern Norwegian coastline.
Norwegian Boreal Forests
Dense, deep-green evergreen forests that characterize the landscape surrounding Sandefjord Airport.
Book a window seat on the left for the best view of Liverpool shortly after takeoff. For morning flights, this side is ideal as the sun remains to the south, reducing glare. During the winter months, look for the sharp contrast between the dark North Sea and the snow-dusted islands of the Norwegian coast during descent.
Mersey Gateway Bridge
The modern cable-stayed bridge spanning the River Mersey between Runcorn and Widnes.
Manchester Skyline
Views of the growing cluster of skyscrapers in Manchester city center visible to the south of the flight path.
The Humber Bridge
The massive suspension bridge crossing the Humber Estuary, once the longest of its kind in the world.
Offshore Wind Farms
Gigantic arrays of turbines, including parts of the Hornsea project, rising from the North Sea.
Oslofjord Entrance
The busy maritime shipping lanes where the Skagerrak meets the entrance to the vast Oslofjord.
The right side is excellent for observing the scale of renewable energy infrastructure in the North Sea. On afternoon flights, be aware that the sun will be on this side of the aircraft, which can make photography difficult. Keep an eye out for the Runcorn bridges immediately after lifting off from LPL.
