Which side of the plane to sit from Stord Airport (Stord) to Stavanger Airport Sola (Stavanger)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior view of the dramatic transition between the coastal fjords and the inland mountain ranges, including distant views of the Folgefonna glacier and the rugged Ryfylke peaks.
Bømlafjorden
The deep fjord crossing immediately after takeoff from Stord, looking towards the mainland.
Folgefonna Glacier
On clear days, the white expanse of Norway's third-largest glacier is visible on the eastern horizon.
Hardangerfjord Gateway
Views of the southern entrance to one of Norway's most iconic and longest fjord systems.
Ryfylke Mountains
Dramatic, steep mountain terrain that characterizes the landscape as you approach Stavanger.
Boknafjorden
The vast fjord basin dotted with islands like Rennesøy and Finnøy during the descent.
Choose this side for morning flights to see the mountains illuminated by the sun. Keep your eyes peeled for the blue ice of Folgefonna early in the flight. This side is also best for seeing the intricate network of bridges connecting the mainland to the islands.
Bømlo Archipelago
A complex maze of small islands, narrow sounds, and coastal fishing villages.
Haugesund Cityscape
Bird's eye view of the historic city center and its bustling maritime harbor.
Karmøy Beaches
The western coast of Karmøy features surprisingly white sandy beaches like Åkrasanden.
North Sea Horizon
Expansive views of the open ocean, often featuring offshore support vessels and tankers.
Kvitsøy Lighthouse
A tiny island community in the middle of the fjord mouth marked by its historic lighthouse.
Select the right side for evening flights to witness the sunset over the North Sea. It is particularly good for spotting maritime traffic and the industrial coastal infrastructure. During landing at SVG, this side often offers a better view of the Solastranden beach.
