RYG β ZAD
Which side of the plane to sit from Moss Airport, Rygge (Rygge) to Zadar Airport (Zadar)?
Right Side of the Plane
While both sides offer stunning Alpine crossings, the Right Side wins for its spectacular descent over the Adriatic archipelago and the scenic views of the North German coastline.
Jutland Peninsula
Broad views of the Danish coastlines and the meeting of the North and Baltic Seas.
Hamburg & Elbe River
The massive port infrastructure and the winding Elbe river cutting through northern Germany.
High Alps & Glaciers
Spectacular vistas of the Hohe Tauern range, including the Grossglockner, Austria's highest peak.
Julian Alps
The sharp, dramatic peaks of Slovenia and the lush green valleys of the Gorenjska region.
Kornati Archipelago
An incredible bird's-eye view of the scattered 'pearl' islands in the turquoise Adriatic Sea during descent.
The right side is essential for the approach into Zadar. As the plane descends over the Adriatic, you will see dozens of small islands. Choose this side for afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset over the sea as you arrive in Croatia. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes after crossing the Alps.
Oslofjord Departure
Aerial views of the intricate islands and rugged coastline of southeastern Norway immediately after takeoff.
Γresund Bridge
Depending on the flight path, a glimpse of the massive bridge connecting Denmark and Sweden.
Prague & Central Europe
Fly over the red roofs of the Czech capital and the meandering Vltava River.
Eastern Alps
Views of the limestone peaks in the Austrian Dachstein and Totes Gebirge regions.
Velebit Mountain Range
The dramatic, rocky karst landscape of Croatia's longest mountain range just before landing.
Sit on the left for better views of the Swedish coastline during the initial climb and the rugged interior of the Velebit mountains during the final 15 minutes of the flight. Best for morning flights to avoid the direct southern sun glare.
