Our Recommendation
9.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side provides a front-row seat to the iconic, jagged peaks of Senja island and the stunning coastal transition into the Vesterålen archipelago.

Right Side Highlights
9.2
🏝️

Kvaløya Coast

Immediately after takeoff, witness the rocky shores and fishing villages of 'Whale Island'.

⛰️

Senja Island

Unrivaled views of the 'Devils Teeth' and the dramatic vertical cliffs that drop into the Atlantic.

🌊

Andfjorden

The vast body of water separating the Troms region from the Vesterålen islands.

🏔️

Møysalen Peak

The highest mountain in Vesterålen, often capped with snow even in late spring.

✈️

Hadseløya Descent

Stunning low-altitude views of the turquoise waters surrounding Stokmarknes before landing.

The right side is significantly more scenic for this route. Sit behind the wing for an unobstructed view of Senja's western coastline. Since this is a very short, low-altitude flight (often under 40 minutes), keep your window blind up and camera ready from the moment of rotation at TOS.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🏔️

Malangen Fjord

A deep, sprawling fjord system that marks the transition from Tromsø toward the southern reaches.

⛰️

Hinnøya Mountains

Views of Norway's largest coastal island, featuring rugged inland peaks and deep valleys.

🏘️

Sortland

Known as the Blue City, visible as the aircraft begins its approach into the Vesterålen region.

🌊

Raftsundet Strait

The narrow passage between Hinnøya and Austvågøya, famous for its dramatic scenery.

Choose the left side for better views of the mainland mountain ranges and the interior fjord networks. In winter, this side is ideal for catching the soft morning twilight glow over the peaks of Hinnøya.
