OSL → VIE
Which side of the plane to sit from Oslo Lufthavn (Oslo) to Vienna International Airport (Vienna)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Czech landscape, including a high probability of seeing Prague, followed by a stunning approach over the Danube river and the Vienna city skyline.
Nordmarka Forests
The vast, deep green wilderness surrounding Oslo immediately after takeoff.
Kattegat Strait
Watch for large shipping vessels navigating the waters between the Danish and Swedish coasts.
Prague Cityscape
A frequent highlight where the Vltava River and the red roofs of the Czech capital are clearly visible.
Bohemian Paradise
Unique sandstone rock formations and dense forests in the northern Czech Republic.
Vienna Skyline & Danube
As the plane turns for its final approach, enjoy panoramic views of the Danube Tower and the city center.
The right side is highly recommended for evening flights to catch the sunset over Central Europe. As you enter Austrian airspace, look for the 'Donauturm' (Danube Tower) and the United Nations headquarters in Vienna. If the plane lands from the west, the right side provides a direct view of the city center.
Oslofjord Eastern Shore
Aerial views of the rugged coastline and islands of southeastern Norway as you depart OSL.
Øresund Bridge
The iconic bridge-tunnel system connecting Copenhagen, Denmark to Malmö, Sweden over the Baltic Sea.
Berlin Metropolitan Area
On clear days, the expansive urban footprint of the German capital is visible to the east.
Giant Mountains (Krkonoše)
The snow-capped peaks along the border of the Czech Republic and Poland come into view mid-flight.
Marchfeld Plains
The flat, fertile agricultural basin of Lower Austria during the final descent into Vienna.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. This side is better for spotting the Baltic coastline and the Øresund Bridge shortly after passing over Denmark. Keep an eye out for wind farms in the Baltic Sea which look like white dots from 30,000 feet.
