VCE β OSL
Which side of the plane to sit from Venice Marco Polo Airport (Venice) to Oslo Lufthavn (Oslo)?
Right Side of the Plane
While both sides offer stunning views of the Alps, the Right Side is slightly superior for its perspectives of the Austrian High Tauern, the Oresund Bridge, and the scenic approach into the Oslo Fjord.
Adriatic Coast
Views of the Venetian Lido and the sandy beaches stretching toward Trieste as the plane turns North.
Grossglockner
Look out for Austria's highest peak and the Pasterze Glacier in the High Tauern range.
Oresund Bridge
The iconic bridge-tunnel system connecting Copenhagen, Denmark, to MalmΓΆ, Sweden, visible across the strait.
Swedish Wilderness
Vast stretches of dense pine forests and thousands of small lakes as you cross into the Scandinavian peninsula.
Inner Oslo Fjord
Panoramic views of the shipping lanes and the city of Oslo as the aircraft aligns with the runway at Gardermoen.
The right side offers a spectacular view of the Oresund Bridge approximately 20-30 minutes before landing. In winter, this side catches the soft 'blue hour' light over the Swedish forests. On clear days, the descent into Oslo over the fjord is one of Europe's most scenic approaches; aim for a window seat away from the wing for an unobstructed view.
Venice Historic Center
Immediately after takeoff from VCE, you get a bird's-eye view of the winding Grand Canal and the Piazza San Marco.
Dolomiti di Brenta
Aerial views of the jagged limestone peaks of the Italian Dolomites as the plane gains altitude over Northern Italy.
Munich & Bavaria
Clear views of the Bavarian capital and the distinctive red-roofed villages of Southern Germany.
Jutland Coastline
The transition from the European mainland to Scandinavia over the windswept west coast of Denmark.
West Oslo Fjord
Dramatic views of the rocky inlets and islands on the western side of the fjord during the final descent.
Sit on the left for the best morning light during a northward flight to avoid direct glare. This side is excellent for photography of the Venetian lagoon right after departure. Keep your camera ready about 15 minutes into the flight for the most dramatic Alpine ridges.
