Which side of the plane to sit from Sarajevo International Airport (Sarajevo) to Stockholm-Arlanda Airport (Stockholm)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior sequence of landmarks, including a potential view of the Danube in Budapest, the jagged peaks of the High Tatras, and the stunning descent over the thousands of islands in the Stockholm archipelago.
Budapest & Danube
The winding 'Blue Danube' river and the architectural density of the Hungarian capital.
High Tatra Mountains
The highest range in the Carpathian Mountains, featuring sharp alpine peaks and glacial lakes.
Warsaw Vistula
The modern skyline of Poland's capital and the broad Vistula river cutting through the plains.
Baltic Coastline
The transition from the Polish coast into the deep blue waters of the Baltic Sea.
Stockholm Archipelago
An incredible mosaic of thousands of islands and islets during the final approach into Arlanda.
This side is ideal for landmark spotting. The High Tatras appear approximately 45-55 minutes after takeoff. For the best view of the archipelago, ensure you are seated by the window at least 20 minutes before landing.
Dinaric Alps
Rugged limestone peaks and deep valleys surrounding Sarajevo immediately after takeoff.
Lake Balaton
Central Europe's largest lake, often appearing with a unique turquoise-milky hue from above.
Silesian Highlands
Rolling hills and dense forest patches spanning the border regions of Czechia and Poland.
Oresund Region
Distant views of the link between Copenhagen and Malmo during the initial descent phase.
Choose this side for afternoon or evening flights to enjoy the sunset over the Baltic Sea. Keep your camera ready in the first 10 minutes for the dramatic mountain climb-out from Sarajevo.
