Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Stockholm to Tromso. While takeoff offers archipelago views on the right, the landing approach on the left provides more dramatic and visually distinctive scenery—the fjord system and Arctic mountains are far more striking than Stockholm's suburban landscape. The left side captures the journey's destination in its most scenic form.

During takeoff from Skavsta (NYO), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right side offers views of the Stockholm archipelago and Mälaren lake as the aircraft climbs northwestward. Left side faces inland toward forested terrain with less visual interest during the initial climb. Notable sights include: Stockholm archipelago (island chains southeast), Mälaren lake (large freshwater body to the west), Uppland forests (dense coniferous woodland covering the inland terrain).

When landing at Tromso (TOS), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left side provides excellent views of the Tromsø fjord system and the surrounding Arctic landscape during descent. The approach path from the south brings the fjord and surrounding mountains into clear view on the left side as the aircraft descends toward the runway. Notable sights include: Tromsø fjord (deep water inlet cutting through mountainous terrain), Tromsøya island (the main island where the airport sits), Tromsø Alps (low Arctic mountain range with sparse vegetation surrounding the fjord), Balsfjord (secondary fjord system visible to the north).

The flight from Skavsta (NYO) to Tromso (TOS) takes Approximately 2 hours 15 minutes.

The flight path travels northwest over central Sweden, crossing the Scandinavian boreal forest (dense spruce and pine woodland with numerous lakes). Notable midpoint features include the Göta älv river valley, the transition from Swedish lowlands to Norwegian highlands around the Swedish-Norwegian border, and the beginning of the Scandinavian mountain chain. The landscape gradually becomes more mountainous and less forested as the aircraft approaches northern Norway, with the terrain becoming increasingly Arctic in character.
