Jæren Coastline
Vibrant sandy beaches and flat agricultural landscapes of Norway immediately after takeoff from Sola.
Farne Islands
A cluster of rocky islands famous for puffin colonies and seals, visible as the flight crosses into UK waters.
Bamburgh Castle
A stunning view of the massive coastal fortress standing on a basalt outcrop as you approach the English coast.
Dunstanburgh Castle
The dramatic ruins of a 14th-century fortification visible on a remote headland south of Bamburgh.
Druridge Bay
A long, sweeping seven-mile stretch of sandy beach and nature reserves just before the final descent sequence.
For the most scenic experience, book a window seat on the left. The final 15 minutes of the flight are the highlight; look for the 'Castle Coast' of Northumberland. Afternoon flights are ideal as the sun illuminates the eastern-facing castle walls while the sea remains deep blue.

North Sea Oil Platforms

Tynemouth Priory
Ancient ruins and a lighthouse standing guard at the mouth of the River Tyne as the aircraft turns inland.
