Our Recommendation
9.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers an unparalleled panoramic view of the rugged Norwegian coastline, the highest glacial peaks, and the iconic Lofoten mountain wall during the descent.

Left Side Highlights
9.2
⛰️

Jotunheimen National Park

Aerial views of Northern Europe's highest peaks, including Galdhøpiggen, often covered in year-round snow.

🧊

Svartisen Glacier

Norway's second-largest glacier, visible as a striking turquoise ice field amidst dark granite peaks.

🌊

Helgeland Coast

The intricate 'skjærgård' coastline featuring thousands of small islands and the Seven Sisters mountain range.

🏔️

Lofoten Archipelago

On the descent towards Evenes, the dramatic jagged peaks of Lofoten rise sharply from the Vestfjorden.

🛬

Vestfjorden Approach

A stunning entry into the Narvik region over deep blue waters and steep coastal cliffs.

Book a seat on the left (A) for the best sunset views over the Atlantic in winter or the midnight sun in summer. This side is also the primary spot for viewing the Aurora Borealis during night flights in the winter months. Aim for seats ahead of or behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the glaciers.

Right Side Highlights
8.1
🛶

Lake Mjøsa

Norway's largest lake, visible shortly after takeoff, stretching through the fertile inland valleys.

🏔️

Dovrefjell-Sunndalsfjella

High-altitude plateau scenery featuring the massive Snøhetta peak and rugged tundra landscapes.

🇸🇪

Swedish Border Range

The remote and wild mountain chain marking the border between Norway and Sweden, often uninhabited.

💎

Stetind

Norway's national mountain, a magnificent natural granite obelisk, can be spotted on the right during the final approach.

⚓

Ofotfjorden

The long, deep fjord leading to Narvik, surrounded by steep mountains that played a key role in WWII history.

The right side (F) is ideal for those who prefer inland mountain scenery and plateaus. On the final approach into Evenes, watch closely for Stetind, as it is one of the most recognizable mountain shapes in the world. Morning flights offer the best lighting on this side to avoid the harsh glare of the sun.
