Senja Island
Incredible views of the 'Devil's Teeth' mountain range and the dramatic coastline of Norway's second-largest island.
Lofoten Wall
The most spectacular part of the flight; a massive chain of granite peaks rising directly from the turquoise Arctic waters.
Atlantic Horizon
Unobstructed views of the horizon, perfect for capturing the midnight sun in summer or polar twilight in winter.
Oil & Gas Platforms
Industrial clusters in the Norwegian Sea and North Sea are visible as tiny sparks of light on the water.
London Skyline
If the flight path follows the typical STAR approach from the north, you may see the Shard and the City of London to the west.
Sit on the right for the ultimate coastal experience. The first 45 minutes of the flight are the most scenic; keep your camera ready for the Lofoten islands. For late afternoon flights, this side offers stunning sunset views over the Atlantic.

Lyngen Alps

Scandinavian Mountains
Expansive views of the high plateaus and alpine terrain marking the border between Norway and Sweden.
Trondheim Fjord
Looking inland, you can often spot the deep indentation of the Trondheimsfjord and the surrounding fertile valleys.
North Sea Wind Farms
Large offshore renewable energy clusters located off the eastern coast of the United Kingdom.
Kentish Countryside
During the descent into Gatwick, enjoy the 'Garden of England' with its rolling hills and historic estates.
The left side is superior for morning flights as it captures the early sunlight hitting the Norwegian mountains. It provides a more stable view of the continental mainland and the eastern English coastline during the final descent.
