VNO → RYG
Which side of the plane to sit from Vilnius International Airport (Vilnius) to Moss Airport, Rygge (Rygge)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Lithuanian capital at takeoff, the vast Swedish lakes Vättern and Vänern mid-flight, and the spectacular western coast of the Oslofjord during the descent into Rygge.
Vilnius Old Town
Depending on the wind direction, the right side often provides a stunning aerial view of Vilnius's red roofs and church spires upon departure.
Lake Vättern
Observe the long, narrow, and deep blue waters of Sweden's second-largest lake as you cross the Götaland region.
Lake Vänern
A massive view of the largest lake in the European Union, which looks more like an inland sea from cruising altitude.
Oslofjord
Dramatic views of the fjord's western banks, dotted with islands and rocky outcrops during the descent.
Horten-Moss Ferry
See the busy ferry traffic crossing the narrowest part of the Oslofjord just before landing.
Sit on the right side for the best lighting conditions during the day, as the sun will be behind or to the south. This side is particularly scenic during the winter months when the Swedish lakes and the Norwegian landscape are covered in snow, creating a high-contrast 'winter wonderland' effect.
Trakai Island Castle
Shortly after takeoff from VNO, look for the distinctive red-brick castle situated on an island in Lake Galvė.
Lithuanian Coastline
View the sandy Curonian Spit and the port of Klaipėda as the plane leaves the Baltic coast.
Southern Gotland
Catch a glimpse of the southern limestone cliffs of Sweden's largest island, Gotland, mid-flight.
Småland Forests
Fly over the dense, rolling pine forests of southern Sweden characterized by thousands of small lakes.
Moss City
A close-up view of the industrial and maritime hub of Moss just before touchdown at RYG.
The left side is prone to glare during afternoon flights as you travel northwest. For evening flights, this side provides front-row seats to the sunset over the North Sea and Skagerrak. Keep an eye out for the Swedish archipelago as you cross from the Baltic Sea to the mainland.
