Search flights from SVJ to BOO
Lofotveggen
The 'Lofoten Wall' – a massive chain of peaks stretching south toward Moskenes.
Henningsvær
The famous fishing village spread across several small islands, often visible shortly after departure.
Landegode Island
A massive, steep-sided island that serves as the primary landmark for the final approach into Bodø.
Bodø Harbor
A perfect aerial view of the city center and the bustling maritime traffic in the harbor just before touchdown.
Vestfjorden Horizon
Uninterrupted views of the open sea where the midnight sun lingers during summer months.
The right side is essential for the classic Lofoten experience. During winter, this side offers the best chance to spot the Northern Lights over the open sea. Choose a seat behind the wing on the Dash 8 to ensure the high-wing and engine don't obstruct your view of Landegode's sheer cliffs.

Svolværgeita
The famous two-horned mountain pinnacle visible immediately after takeoff from Helle.
Austnesfjorden
Deep blue fjord waters framed by the sharp, jagged peaks of the mainland-facing Lofoten coast.
Steigen Mountains
Dramatic granite peaks of the Norwegian mainland appearing across the Vestfjorden.
Bodø Peninsula
The urban landscape of Bodø and the surrounding agricultural flats as the plane turns for landing.
Sit on the left for morning flights to catch the sunrise over the mainland mountains. This side is also better for spotting the remote peaks of Hamarøy. On clear days, you can see the distant white caps of the Blåmannsisen glacier on the mainland horizon.
