Which side of the plane to sit from Tenerife South Airport (Tenerife) to Oslo Lufthavn (Oslo)?

Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior mix of volcanic island vistas, the sprawling landscapes of mainland Europe, and a breathtaking final approach over the islands and forests of the Oslofjord.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏝️

Gran Canaria

Stunning views of the neighboring Canary Islands shortly after departure.

🏰

Iberian Interior

The high plateaus and varied mountain ranges of mainland Portugal and Spain.

🗼

European Hubs

Possible views of major cities like Paris or Brussels depending on the specific airway used.

🇩🇰

Jutland Peninsula

The flat, green agricultural heartland of Denmark stretching between two seas.

🏙️

Oslofjord

A world-class descent over the narrow fjord, tiny islands, and the Oslo city skyline.

The right side is essential for the approach into Oslo Gardermoen; if the plane lands towards the north (Runway 01L/R), you will see the city and the fjord perfectly. During winter flights, this side also provides better lighting for photography of the snowy European landscape.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🌋

Mount Teide

Aerial view of Spain's highest peak as you climb away from Tenerife.

🌊

Galician Coast

The rugged, deep-blue Atlantic coastline of Northwestern Spain.

🚢

English Channel

Views of the busy maritime shipping lanes between France and the UK.

💨

North Sea Wind Farms

Massive offshore wind installations visible in the waters near the Netherlands.

🇳🇴

Southern Norway Coast

The rocky archipelago and deep blue waters marking the entry to Scandinavia.

Choose the left side for afternoon flights to experience a spectacular sunset over the Atlantic Ocean. This side is also better for spotting the silhouette of the British Isles if the flight path tracks further west over the Bay of Biscay.
