Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a spectacular view of the Danish islands, the city of Copenhagen, and the impressive Öresund Bridge shortly after departure from the Swedish coast.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
💧

Lake Vättern

Sweden's second-largest lake is often visible in the distance, showcasing deep blue waters against the surrounding forest.

🇩🇰

Copenhagen & Zealand

A prime view of the Danish capital's urban layout and the surrounding island of Zealand approximately 30-40 minutes into the flight.

🌉

Öresund Bridge

The iconic bridge-tunnel link between Sweden and Denmark is clearly visible as a thin line cutting across the sea.

🌬️

North Sea Wind Farms

Vast offshore wind arrays, including the Thanet or London Array, appear as geometric patterns of white turbines in the ocean.

🏖️

The Wash & North Norfolk

Depending on the arrival path, the distinct square-shaped bay of The Wash and the sandy beaches of Norfolk come into view.

The right side is superior for landmarks. To see Copenhagen and the Öresund Bridge clearly, choose a morning flight to have the sun behind you. This side also avoids the direct glare of the afternoon sun when flying southwest toward London. Keep a lookout mid-flight for the intricate coastline of the Danish archipelago.

Left Side Highlights

🇸🇪

Södermanland Coastline

View the rugged Swedish coastline and the numerous small islands of the southern Stockholm archipelago immediately after takeoff.

🌊

The Baltic Sea

Expansive views of the Baltic as the flight heads southwest, often showing heavy maritime traffic and cargo ships.

⚓️

Port of Felixstowe

On the descent into England, look for one of Europe's largest container ports with its brightly colored stacks of shipping containers.

🌳

Suffolk Countryside

Green pastures and historic English estates are visible as the plane glides over East Anglia toward Stansted.

Sit on the left for sunset views on evening flights as the sun dips below the horizon over the North Sea. During the final approach, this side often provides a better perspective of the rural Essex landscape and the historic village of Stansted Mountfitchet.
