Which side of the plane to sit from Oslo Lufthavn (Oslo) to Berlin-Schönefeld Airport (Berlin)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior perspective of the rugged Norwegian coastline upon departure and the best chance to see the Berlin city skyline, including the TV Tower, during the final approach phase.
Oslofjord Islands
A stunning mosaic of islands and summer cabins dotting the western side of the fjord.
Vestfold Coast
Clear views of historic coastal towns like Tønsberg and the rocky outcrops of Verdens Ende.
Mecklenburg Lake District
A vast landscape of over a thousand lakes in Northern Germany, including the large Lake Müritz.
Berlin Panorama
On the standard approach to BER, this side typically offers a clear view of the Alexanderplatz TV Tower and the city center.
For the best experience, choose a seat behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Norwegian coastline. During the descent into Berlin, the right side is statistically more likely to provide a view of the city center landmarks depending on the wind direction and active runway. Afternoon flights offer the best lighting for the German lakes.
Oslo Cityscape
Aerial view of the Norwegian capital and the Grorud valley as the plane climbs south.
Öresund Bridge
The massive bridge connecting Copenhagen and Malmö is visible as you cross between Denmark and Sweden.
Copenhagen & Amager
Vivid views of the Danish capital's eastern districts and the Kastrup airport area.
Rügen Island
The famous white chalk cliffs and the Jasmund National Park on the German Baltic coast.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is excellent for spotting the intricate maritime traffic in the Baltic Sea and the wind farms off the coast of Denmark. Keep your camera ready about 40 minutes into the flight for the Öresund crossing.
