Which side of the plane to sit from Trondheim Airport Værnes (Trondheim) to Alicante International Airport (Alicante)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side offers a spectacular aerial tour of Europe, including the dramatic Norwegian coastline, potential glimpses of Paris, and a stunning traverse over the snow-capped Pyrenees.
Norwegian West Coast
Stunning views of the deep fjords and islands as you head south from Trondheim.
Wadden Sea
The unique UNESCO-listed tidal flats and islands along the Dutch and German coastlines.
Paris Metropolis
On clear days, the vast urban sprawl of Paris is often visible in the distance to the west.
The Pyrenees
A breathtaking crossing of the high mountain range that forms the natural border between France and Spain.
Spanish Sierras
The arid, dramatic limestone peaks of the Sierra Aitana just before touchdown in Alicante.
The right side is the clear winner for geographic diversity. The Pyrenees crossing is the highlight—try to book a seat ahead of the wing for an unobstructed view of the peaks. For afternoon flights, this side will be in the shade for the latter half of the journey, making it easier to take photos without glare. Keep an eye out for the distinctive circular fields of central Spain.
Dovrefjell Highlands
The rugged glaciated mountains and alpine plateaus of central Norway shortly after departure.
Oslo & Southern Norway
Aerial views of the capital city and the dense forest regions surrounding the Oslo Fjord.
Port of Hamburg
Looking down on the massive industrial harbor and the winding Elbe river in Northern Germany.
Valencia Cityscape
The futuristic City of Arts and Sciences and the sprawling urban layout of Spain's third-largest city.
Mediterranean Coast
A long, scenic descent parallel to the Spanish shoreline overlooking the deep blue Balearic Sea.
Sit on the left for early morning flights to catch the sunrise over the Baltic and North Seas. This side is also superior for spotting the urban layout of Valencia during the final phase of the flight. If you prefer looking out over the open ocean once you reach the Mediterranean, this is your best bet.
