VNO → CPH
Which side of the plane to sit from Vilnius International Airport (Vilnius) to Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (Copenhagen)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of both capital cities—Vilnius at departure and Copenhagen at arrival—along with the picturesque southern Swedish coastline and the iconic Turning Torso in Malmö.
Vilnius Old Town
A stunning overview of the red-roofed UNESCO historic center if the flight departs towards the east before turning.
Klaipėda & The Baltic
The bustling Lithuanian port city and the transition from land to the deep blue Baltic Sea.
Swedish Skåne
The neatly patched agricultural fields and coastline of southern Sweden during the descent.
Turning Torso
The famous twisting skyscraper in Malmö stands out clearly as you cross the strait.
Copenhagen Cityscape
A bird's-eye view of the Danish capital's harbor, canals, and historic spires just before touchdown.
Middelgrunden Wind Farm
The iconic arc of offshore wind turbines located in the waters just outside Copenhagen.
The right side is perfect for morning flights to enjoy the sunrise reflecting off the Baltic. For the best view of Copenhagen's city center and the Malmö skyline, choose a seat forward of the wing. Keep an eye out for the 'bridge to nowhere' effect where the Øresund bridge disappears into an underwater tunnel.
Neman River Valley
The winding curves of Lithuania's major river cutting through vast pine forests shortly after takeoff.
Curonian Spit
A distant view of the unique 98km long UNESCO-protected sand dune spit and lagoon.
Bornholm
The rocky Danish island located in the middle of the Baltic Sea, visible during the mid-flight cruise.
Øresund Bridge
An incredible view of the combined railway and motorway bridge connecting Sweden to Denmark.
Stevns Klint
Dramatic white chalk cliffs on the Danish coast, often visible during the final descent into CPH.
Sit on the left for the best view of the Øresund Bridge during the final approach, especially if the plane is landing from the south. This side also avoids direct afternoon sun when flying west, making it ideal for photography during later flights.
