RYGBVA

Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers superior views of the intricate coastline of the Oslofjord during takeoff and provides a better angle for viewing the North Sea islands and the Dutch coastline as you fly south.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🇳🇴

Oslofjord and Moss

Aerial view of the archipelago and the town of Moss immediately after departure.

🇩🇰

Jutland Peninsula

Clear views of the western Danish coastline and the Limfjord waterway crossing the land.

🏝️

East Frisian Islands

The unique chain of barrier islands off the German coast, characterized by shifting sand dunes.

🇳🇱

Dutch Delta Works

Intricate patterns of dams and sluices along the southwestern Netherlands coast.

🏰

Somme River Valley

The historic battlefields and winding river path of Northern France as you approach Beauvais.

Sit on the left for morning flights to see the sun illuminate the European coastline. Look for the distinctive shapes of the Wadden Sea mudflats about 45 minutes into the flight. This side also offers a better chance of spotting the city of Antwerp if the flight path takes a more inland route.

Right Side Highlights
6.5
🌊

Skagerrak Strait

Expansive views of the deep blue waters where the North Sea meets the Baltic.

⛵

Vestfold Coast

The picturesque coastline of southern Norway, including the towns of Tønsberg and Sandefjord.

🌾

Picardy Plains

Rolling agricultural landscapes and small French villages typical of the Oise region.

🏙️

Lille Metropolitan Area

The dense urban landscape of Lille and Roubaix near the Belgian border.

The right side is ideal for late afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over the English Channel in the distance. During the descent into BVA, watch for the Gothic architecture of Beauvais Cathedral, which has the highest Gothic choir in the world, visible just before landing.
