Which side of the plane to sit from Oslo Lufthavn (Oslo) to Bodø Airport (Bodo)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers an unparalleled panorama of the rugged Norwegian coastline, the massive Svartisen glacier, and the dramatic approach toward the Lofoten archipelago across the Vestfjorden.
Jotunheimen Peaks
Distant views of Galdhøpiggen and the highest mountain range in Northern Europe shortly after reaching cruising altitude.
Helgeland Coast
The intricate 'Thousand Islands' coastline and the dramatic peaks of the Seven Sisters mountain range.
Svartisen Glacier
A stunning view of Norway's second-largest glacier, with its deep blue ice cascading down toward the fjords.
Lofoten Wall
The iconic, jagged peaks of the Lofoten Islands appearing across the sea during the final descent into Bodø.
Saltstraumen
Potential views of the world's strongest maelstrom located just southeast of Bodø during the approach.
Sit forward of the wing for the best view of Svartisen. Choose a morning flight for direct sunlight on the glaciers, or an evening flight in winter to look for the Aurora Borealis over the open ocean side. Keep your camera ready during the last 15 minutes of the flight for the Lofoten vista.
Østerdalen Valleys
Vast stretches of deep pine forests and winding river systems typical of the Norwegian interior.
Rondane National Park
The distinctive rounded peaks and high-altitude plateaus of Norway's oldest national park.
Trondheim City
Aerial view of the Nidaros Cathedral and the colorful wharf houses along the Nidelva river if the path tracks inland.
Arctic Circle Marker
The flight crosses the Arctic Circle over the rugged, treeless mountain landscape of the Saltfjellet range.
Swedish Border Peaks
Glimpses of the high wilderness mountains stretching toward the Swedish border to the east.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh western sun glare. Focus on the terrain change as you cross the Arctic Circle, where the landscape shifts from forest to barren alpine tundra. Watch for the Saltfjellet mountains just before the descent begins.
