Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers an unparalleled perspective of the colorful Ittoqqortoormiit village upon takeoff, followed by an intimate view of the jagged alpine peaks of Liverpool Land.

Right Side Highlights
9.7
🏠

Ittoqqortoormiit Village

A stunning aerial view of the brightly painted wooden houses of one of the world's most remote settlements.

🏔️

Liverpool Land

Fly past dramatic, jagged mountain ranges and granite spires that define the eastern coastline.

🌊

Hurry Inlet

Look down into the deep blue waters of the inlet that separates the alpine mountains from the sedimentary plains.

❄️

Glacial Fingers

See small local glaciers and perennial snowfields clinging to the steep slopes of the Liverpool Land massif.

Ensure your camera is ready immediately upon takeoff to capture the iconic view of Ittoqqortoormiit. This side is better for 'mountain-style' photography as the flight path passes very close to the Liverpool Land peaks. Morning flights provide the best lighting for the colorful houses and the eastern mountain faces.

Left Side Highlights
9.4
🌌

Scoresby Sund

Witness the mouth of the world's largest and deepest fjord system stretching toward the horizon.

🧊

Tabular Icebergs

Spot massive, skyscraper-sized icebergs drifting out from the Inner Scoresby Sund toward the Greenland Sea.

🦌

Jameson Land Tundra

Scan the vast, open Arctic plains which are a primary grazing ground for the region's muskox population.

🏜️

Coastal Sediments

Observe the unique geological layers and silt-rich river deltas flowing from the interior ice sheet.

The left side is superior for long-range visibility of the Arctic Ocean and the massive scale of the fjord. Use binoculars to search for seals or muskoxen on the tundra during the short summer months. In late autumn, this side provides the best chance to see the low sun reflecting off giant icebergs.
