Sit on the Right side of the plane for the best views on flights from Bergen to Edinburgh. While landing offers excellent views on the left, the takeoff scenery from the right side—featuring Bergen's dramatic fjord system, islands, and coastal mountains—is more visually distinctive and geographically striking than the approach into Edinburgh. The right side captures the most memorable segment of this short route.

During takeoff from Bergen Flesland (BGO), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right-side seats offer immediate views of Bergen's fjord system and the surrounding mountain terrain as the aircraft climbs out westward over Byfjorden before turning southeast toward Edinburgh. Left seats face inland toward less dramatic terrain. Notable sights include: Byfjorden (the fjord directly west of Bergen airport), Fløyen mountain (551m, visible on the north side of Bergen), the Hordaland coastal archipelago with its scattered islands and skerries.

When landing at Edinburgh (EDI), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left-side seats provide excellent views during the descent approach into Edinburgh, particularly of the Firth of Forth estuary, the Pentland Hills to the south, and Edinburgh's urban landscape including the distinctive Castle Rock and city center as the aircraft descends from the northeast. Notable sights include: The Firth of Forth (the wide estuary with its characteristic bridges visible at lower altitudes), the Pentland Hills (rolling moorland hills south of Edinburgh), Edinburgh Castle and the Old Town ridge (visible as the urban core on the skyline), the Forth Road Bridge and rail bridge (spanning the firth to the north).

The flight from Bergen Flesland (BGO) to Edinburgh (EDI) takes Approximately 1 hour 45 minutes.

The flight path crosses the North Sea in a generally southeast direction. Notable features along the route include the Norwegian coast receding to the northwest (with the Shetland Islands potentially visible far to the left/north at altitude), and the Scottish coastline approaching from the southeast, particularly the Fife coast and the Forth estuary becoming visible 30-40 minutes before landing. The crossing itself offers open ocean views with minimal landmarks, but the transition from Norwegian to Scottish airspace marks a clear geographical shift.
