Which side of the plane to sit from Sandefjord Airport, Torp (Sandefjord) to Liverpool John Lennon Airport (Liverpool)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers superior views of the Oslofjord upon departure and a more detailed perspective of the English coastline and the Manchester-Liverpool urban corridor during the descent.
Oslofjord Islands
Aerial views of the intricate island chains and coastal towns of the Vestfold region shortly after takeoff.
Yorkshire Coastline
Dramatic cliffs and the coastal towns of Scarborough and Whitby as the flight crosses the North Sea.
North York Moors
Vast stretches of protected moorland and deep green valleys spanning across North Yorkshire.
Manchester Metro
A clear view of the Greater Manchester sprawl, including the iconic football stadiums and city center skyscrapers.
Liverpool Waterfront
The historic Three Graces and the iconic Liverpool skyline during the final approach into John Lennon Airport.
For the best experience, choose a seat behind the wing to avoid engine glare. On afternoon flights, this side will be away from the direct sun, making it easier to take photos of the Yorkshire landscape and the Mersey estuary. Watch for the distinctive shape of the Manchester Ship Canal just before landing.
North Sea Energy
Spotting offshore wind farms and cargo vessels traversing the busy shipping lanes between Norway and the UK.
The Pennines
The 'backbone of England' featuring rolling hills and reservoirs that separate the East and West of the country.
Yorkshire Dales
Rugged limestone formations and patchwork fields visible to the North during the mid-flight transition.
Mersey Gateway
The impressive infrastructure of the Mersey Gateway Bridge and the industrial heritage of Runcorn and Widnes.
The right side is excellent for viewing the more mountainous terrain of the Pennines and distant glimpses of the Lake District on very clear days. If the flight approaches from the west (Runway 09), this side offers a panoramic view of the Wirral Peninsula and the Irish Sea. Early morning flights will have the best lighting on this side.
