Which side of the plane to sit from Tromsø Airport, (Tromso) to Bodø Airport (Bodo)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an unparalleled panoramic view of the Lofoten and Vesterålen archipelagos, featuring jagged mountain walls rising directly from the turquoise Norwegian Sea.
Senja Island
View the dramatic 'Dragon's Teeth' peaks and the steep cliffs of Norway's second-largest island.
Vesterålen Archipelago
A beautiful chain of islands featuring white sandy beaches and sharp mountain ridges.
The Lofoten Wall
The most spectacular part of the flight, showing a continuous line of jagged peaks rising from the ocean.
Vestfjorden
The wide fjord separating the Lofoten islands from the mainland, often filled with fishing vessels.
Landegode Island
A mountainous island just outside Bodø that signals the final approach to the runway.
This is widely considered the most scenic side for this route. Aim for a window seat away from the wing to fully capture the Lofoten archipelago. In summer, the midnight sun provides 24-hour visibility. During autumn and winter, keep the cabin lights low to potentially spot the Aurora Borealis over the Norwegian Sea.
Tromsdalstinden
The iconic pyramid-shaped mountain overlooking Tromsø is visible immediately after takeoff.
Malangen Fjord
Deep, winding fjord systems with steep emerald slopes and small coastal settlements.
Stetind
Norway's national mountain, a massive natural granite obelisk, can often be seen in the distance to the east.
Mainland Fjords
Intricate coastal geography of the Nordland mainland featuring deep inlets and rugged plateaus.
Børvasstindan
A striking mountain range south of Bodø that becomes visible during the final descent into the airport.
Choose this side if you prefer views of the mainland's vast mountain wilderness and deep inland fjords. During the winter months, this side is excellent for catching the soft glow of the polar sun low on the southern horizon. Keep an eye out for the distinctive flat-topped mountains of the Nordland interior.
