Which side of the plane to sit from Narvik Framnes Airport (Narvik) to Bodø Airport (Bodo)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a more intimate perspective of the dramatic Norwegian mainland, featuring the anvil-shaped Stetind mountain and the sprawling Frostisen glacier, while the right side looks across the sea toward the distant Lofoten archipelago.
Ofotfjorden
Immediate views of the deep fjord system surrounding Narvik upon departure.
Stetind Peak
A clear view of Norway's national mountain, a massive granite monolith rising from the sea.
Frostisen Glacier
One of the largest glaciers in Northern Norway, visible on the high plateau south of Narvik.
Tysfjorden
Aerial view of the fjord where Norway is at its narrowest point between the sea and the Swedish border.
Sjunkhatten National Park
Rugged alpine terrain and jagged peaks as the flight enters the Bodø region.
Sit on the left for the best morning light illuminating the granite faces of the mountains. This side is superior for seeing the dramatic contrast between the deep blue fjords and the white glacier ice. During winter night flights, this side often offers the best chance to see the Aurora Borealis over the mountain range.
Vestfjorden
The expansive open water that separates the mainland from the dramatic Lofoten islands.
Lofotveggen
The distant but unmistakable jagged silhouette of the Lofoten Wall stretching into the Atlantic.
Landegode Island
A massive, mountainous island that serves as a spectacular landmark during the descent into Bodø.
Hamarøyskaftet
A very distinctive, needle-like mountain peak visible near the coast of Hamarøy.
The right side is the preferred choice for evening flights to catch the sunset behind the Lofoten islands. It provides a sense of the vastness of the Norwegian Sea. Keep your camera focused on the horizon to capture the 'Lofoten Wall' mountain range, which is especially photogenic in the late afternoon sun.
