Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Oslo to Stockholm. While takeoff favors the right for Oslofjord views, the landing approach into Arlanda from the west provides superior geography—Lake Mälaren and Stockholm's archipelago are more visually distinctive than the return leg's inland terrain. Left side captures the most memorable features of the route.

During takeoff from Oslo Fornebu (FBU), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right side captures the Oslofjord immediately after departure, with the fjord's islands and peninsulas stretching southeast. Left side shows inland terrain with less distinctive features during the initial climb. Notable sights include: Oslofjord with its scattered skerries, Nesodden Peninsula to the southeast, Hovedøya Island, inner fjord waterways.

When landing at Arlanda (ARN), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left side provides views of Lake Mälaren's western arms and Stockholm's archipelago approach during descent into Arlanda. Right side shows less distinctive inland terrain north of the airport. Notable sights include: Lake Mälaren's western basin, Stockholm archipelago with its island chains, Västerås area to the west, Arlanda airport runways and surrounding forest.

The flight from Oslo Fornebu (FBU) to Arlanda (ARN) takes Approximately 1 hour 10 minutes.

The flight path crosses the Göta älv river valley and transitions from Norwegian fjord terrain into Swedish lake and forest landscape. Vänern Lake (Europe's third-largest lake) lies to the southwest of the direct route but may be visible on clear days. The terrain gradually flattens from Oslo's hilly surroundings into the flat-to-rolling landscape of central Sweden. Multiple smaller lakes dot the landscape between the two cities, appearing as silver reflections in good visibility.
