Which side of the plane to sit from Oslo Lufthavn (Oslo) to Venice Marco Polo Airport (Venice)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side is superior for the spectacular descent over the Dolomites and offers the most iconic views of the Venice historic center and the lagoon during the final approach.
Oslofjord
Dramatic aerial views of the narrow inlets and forested islands immediately following departure from OSL.
Oresund Bridge
The massive engineering marvel connecting Copenhagen and Malmo is often visible during the transit over Denmark.
The Dolomites
Jagged, pale limestone peaks and deep valleys provide a stunning backdrop as you cross the Italian border.
Venice Historic Center
The best chance to see the Grand Canal, St. Marks Square, and the unique fish-shape of the island city.
For the best experience, choose a seat behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Venice lagoon. Morning flights provide the best lighting for the Dolomites. If the plane lands towards the north (Runway 04L), the left side is essential for seeing the city center.
Jutland Coastline
The sandy western coast of Denmark and the Wadden Sea shallows visible during the initial cruise phase.
Hamburg Port
A view of the sprawling industrial port and the Elbe river winding through northern Germany.
Lake Constance
The massive body of water bordering Germany, Switzerland, and Austria visible before entering the high Alps.
Central Alps
High-altitude views of snow-capped peaks and glaciers in the Austrian and Swiss mountain ranges.
Lake Garda
Italy's largest lake, characterized by its deep blue water and steep northern cliffs.
The right side is excellent for mountain lovers as it faces the higher peaks of the Central Alps. Watch for Lake Garda about 15 minutes before landing. In the late afternoon, this side may experience significant sun glare, so keep the window shade partially down until the descent.
