Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Aalborg to Copenhagen. While takeoff favors the right for Limfjord views, the landing approach into Copenhagen from the left is more rewarding and visually distinctive. The Øresund Strait crossing and approach over Amager wetlands provide better geography context for the destination.

During takeoff from Aalborg (AAL), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right-side seats capture the Limfjord's intricate waterway system as you climb out northbound. The fjord's branching arms and surrounding agricultural plains are distinctive and visible up to 10,000 feet. Left side faces inland terrain with fewer visual landmarks. Notable sights include: Limfjord (primary water feature), Aalborg city center, Nørresundby across the fjord, agricultural grid patterns of North Zealand.

When landing at Kastrup (CPH), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left-side seats offer the best approach views into Copenhagen. You'll see the Øresund Strait, the Swedish coast at Malmö, and the approach path over the Amager Mosebryg wetlands before touchdown at Kastrup. Right side faces inland with fewer distinctive features. Notable sights include: Øresund Strait, Malmö skyline (Sweden, far shore), Amager Mosebryg wetlands, Copenhagen harbor and city center.

The flight from Aalborg (AAL) to Kastrup (CPH) takes Approximately 45 minutes.

The flight path crosses the Kattegat Sea heading south-southwest. At cruise altitude (around 15,000-20,000 feet), you'll pass over the Danish archipelago including islands like Anholt and Læsø to the east, with the Jutland Peninsula visible to the west. The transition from North Zealand's agricultural landscape to the more densely populated eastern Denmark occurs in the final 20 minutes. The Great Belt (Storebælt) region lies to the west but is not on the direct flight path.
