ORBMMX

Which side of the plane to sit from Örebro Airport (Orebro) to Malmö Sturup Airport (Malmoe)?

Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the vast Lake Vättern shortly after takeoff and a stunning panoramic approach toward the Oresund region and Malmö skyline during descent.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🌊

Lake Vättern

Breathtaking views of Sweden's second-largest lake, known for its deep, crystal-clear blue waters.

🏞️

Tiveden National Park

Early in the flight, observe the rugged, rocky forest terrain of one of Sweden's most wild southern areas.

🏙️

Malmö & Oresund

On descent, look westward to see the Turning Torso skyscraper and the distant silhouette of the Oresund Bridge.

🔵

Lake Bolmen

A large, island-filled lake that provides a scenic landmark halfway through the journey.

The right side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset reflecting off Lake Vättern. During the descent into Sturup, the right side provides a much better chance to spot the Copenhagen skyline across the water if the weather is clear. Use polarized sunglasses to reduce the glare from the many lakes along the flight path.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏙️

Jönköping City

A clear view of the city nestled at the southern tip of Lake Vättern with its distinct harbor area.

🌲

Småland Forests

Expansive views of the dense, deep green coniferous forests and rolling highlands typical of southern Sweden.

🌾

Scanian Plains

The landscape transforms into a vibrant patchwork of agricultural fields as you enter the Skåne region.

💧

Lake Vidöstern

One of the many beautiful glacial lakes dotting the landscape near the town of Värnamo.

Sit on the left for the best morning light illuminating the Småland highlands. As you approach Malmö Sturup, look for the contrast between the industrial outskirts and the lush agricultural grid of southern Sweden. Keep an eye out for the historic Bosjökloster Castle near Lake Ringsjön mid-flight.
