Which side of the plane to sit from Pori Airport (Pori) to Stockholm-Arlanda Airport (Stockholm)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an immediate view of the iconic Yyteri sands and the Pori archipelago, followed by a wide perspective of the Bothnian Sea and the approach into the Swedish heartland.
Pori Center
Excellent views of the Kokemäenjoki river delta and the urban layout of Pori shortly after rotation.
Yyteri Beach
The famous 6km stretch of sandy dunes and shallow waters, one of the longest in the Nordic countries.
Bothnian Shipping Lanes
Spot commercial vessels and ferries traveling between the Gulf of Bothnia and the Baltic Sea.
Grisslehamn Coast
The first point of contact with the Swedish mainland, featuring rocky inlets and pine-covered islets.
Lake Mälaren Catchment
During the descent into Arlanda, enjoy views of the intricate waterways and lakes north of Stockholm.
The right side is unbeatable for the departure phase; Yyteri beach is a significant landmark to watch for within the first 5 minutes. For evening flights, you will experience a sunset over the Swedish horizon, though glare can be intense during the mid-flight crossing.
Satakunta Woodlands
Expansive views of the dense Finnish forests surrounding Pori immediately after takeoff.
Rauma Coastline
Distances views of the historic port city of Rauma and its coastal industrial areas to the south.
Bothnian Sea
A vast crossing over the brackish waters separating the Fennoscandian Peninsula.
Northern Åland
On clear days, the northernmost fringes of the Åland archipelago are visible on the southern horizon.
Uppland Countryside
The final descent offers views of the patchwork fields and rural estates of east-central Sweden.
Sit on the left for softer lighting during morning flights as the sun rises in the east. This side is better for spotting the distant silhouettes of the Åland Islands if the flight path takes a slightly more southerly track due to air traffic control.
