Which side of the plane to sit from Tromsø Airport, (Tromso) to Hasvik Airport (Hasvik)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers unparalleled views of the world-famous Lyngen Alps and the dramatic, jagged mountainous spine of Northern Norway.
Lyngen Alps
Spectacular jagged peaks and glaciers reaching heights of over 1800 meters directly out of the sea.
Tromsø View
Aerial perspective of Tromsøya island and the iconic Arctic Cathedral immediately after takeoff.
Ullsfjorden
Deep blue fjord waters framed by some of the most dramatic mountain scenery in Scandinavia.
Jøkelfjorden
Views towards the only glacier in mainland Europe that calves directly into the sea.
The flight is very short (approx. 30-40 mins), so keep your camera ready from the moment of takeoff. The right side is superior for mountain photography; morning flights provide the best light on the eastern faces of the Lyngen Alps. Since the aircraft is usually a Dash-8, try to sit in the rear or front to avoid the engine obstructing the view.
Barents Sea
Expansive views of the North Atlantic and Barents Sea opening up towards the horizon.
Vannøya Island
Rugged coastal topography featuring steep cliffs and remote fishing outposts.
Sørøya Cliffs
Dramatic approach to the 'Island of the Big Fish' with spectacular bird cliffs near Hasvik.
Arctic Horizon
Perfect viewing angle for the midnight sun in summer and northern lights in winter.
Choose the left side for the best chance to see the Aurora Borealis during night flights, as it faces away from the cabin light reflection on the wing. In summer, this side provides direct views of the midnight sun over the open ocean.
