Which side of the plane to sit from Malta International Airport (Malta) to Moss Airport, Rygge (Rygge)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Italian peninsula, the jagged Dolomites, and the scenic descent over the islands of the Oslofjord.
Mount Etna
Early in the flight, look back to see Europe's most active volcano rising from Sicily.
Rome & Central Italy
Clear views of the 'Eternal City' and the Apennine mountain range running down the spine of Italy.
The Dolomites
The dramatic, jagged limestone peaks of the Italian Alps, offering some of the most unique mountain scenery in the world.
Munich & Bavaria
Fly over the patchwork fields of southern Germany and the sprawl of the Bavarian capital.
Oslofjord
The stunning final approach into Rygge, featuring a landscape of hundreds of small islands and coastal inlets.
Sit on the right for the best morning light on the Alps. About 45-60 minutes into the flight, watch for the Italian coast and the transition into the high mountains. During the descent into Norway, the right side provides the most iconic views of the fjord landscape.
Tyrrhenian Sea
Expansive views of the deep blue Mediterranean as you track north along the Italian coast.
Corsica & Sardinia
On clear days, the rugged mountainous silhouettes of these Mediterranean islands appear on the horizon.
Western Alps

Rhine River
The silver thread of the Rhine winding through the industrial and green heart of Germany.
Jutland Coast
The sandy western coastline of Denmark and the transition into the North Sea.
