Which side of the plane to sit from Vienna International Airport (Vienna) to Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (Copenhagen)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side is the prime choice for this route, providing an unparalleled view of the Øresund Bridge and the Swedish coast during the descent, which are the most iconic sights of the trip.
Moravian Landscapes
The rolling hills and agricultural patterns of the eastern Czech Republic at the start of the cruise.
Baltic Sea Vista
Deep blue waters and maritime traffic as the aircraft transitions from Germany to Scandinavia.
Rügen Island
The white cliffs of Jasmund National Park are visible on the German Baltic coast.
Øresund Bridge
The world-famous bridge and tunnel link between Denmark and Sweden is best viewed from this side.
Malmö Skyline
Views of Sweden's southern hub and the distinctive twisting profile of the Turning Torso skyscraper.
The right side is essential for the Øresund Bridge; sit behind the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block your view of the bridge's descent into the water. Early morning flights offer beautiful soft light over the Baltic Sea.
Vienna Cityscape
Panoramic views of the Austrian capital and the Danube river loops immediately after takeoff.
Prague Horizon
The spires of the Czech capital are frequently visible to the west during the mid-flight cruise.
Berlin Skyline
A grand view of the German capital's urban sprawl, including the iconic Fernsehturm TV tower.
Stevns Klint
Beautiful views of the UNESCO-listed white chalk cliffs on the Danish island of Zealand.
Copenhagen Center
Bird's-eye view of the Danish capital's historic center and colorful Nyhavn district on final approach.
The left side is best for city-dwellers, offering views of four major European cities. Choose an afternoon flight to ensure the sun is on the other side, preventing glare while photographing the Danish coastline.
