Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Frankfurt to Oslo. Left side wins both takeoff and landing. During the cruise portion heading north-northeast, the left side also faces west over Denmark's Jutland peninsula and the Kattegat strait, giving slightly more water and coastal scenery than the right side's view over the Baltic and Swedish interior forests.

During takeoff from Frankfurt Main (FRA), sit on the Left side for the best views. Frankfurt typically departs northwest on runway 25C/25R, putting the left side facing south over the city center and the Rhine-Main region. You get a clear view of Frankfurt's distinctive skyline and the Rhine River bending westward before the aircraft turns north. Notable sights include: Frankfurt city skyline (Bankenviertel towers), Rhine River bend near Mainz, Taunus hills to the north, Main River confluence.

When landing at Oslo Gardermoen (OSL), sit on the Left side for the best views. Oslo Gardermoen typically lands from the south on runway 01L/01R, with the aircraft approaching from the south-southwest. The left side faces east toward Lake Mjøsa and the forested Hedmarken plateau, while the right side looks west into less distinctive terrain. However on southerly approaches the left side also captures the Oslofjord and Oslo city as the aircraft descends over the region. Notable sights include: Oslofjord, Lake Mjøsa (Norway's largest lake), Oslo city center, forested Romerike plateau.

The flight from Frankfurt Main (FRA) to Oslo Gardermoen (OSL) takes Approximately 2 hours 10 minutes.

The route tracks north-northeast over central Germany, crossing the North German Plain near Hannover, then over the Danish border and Jutland peninsula. The aircraft typically crosses the Kattegat strait between Denmark and Sweden before descending over the Swedish-Norwegian border forests into Gardermoen. The Scandinavian coastline and scattered islands of the Kattegat are the most visually distinctive midpoint features.
