Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Oslo to Edinburgh. Left-side seats provide superior views on both legs: departing Oslo's fjord and forests, and arriving over the Firth of Forth and Edinburgh's dramatic castle ridge. The landing approach is particularly rewarding, with the castle and Arthur's Seat being iconic visual landmarks.

During takeoff from Oslo Gardermoen (OSL), sit on the Right side for the best views. OSL typically departs runway 01L/01R (northbound) or 19L/19R (southbound). Right-side seats offer views of the Oslofjord and the forested terrain east of the airport during northbound departures, which are more common. During southbound departures, the right side shows the Oslo metropolitan area and surrounding valleys. Notable sights include: Oslofjord (immediate east), Lilomarka forest (southeast), Oslo city center and Akershus Fortress (south), Nordmarka forest ridge (north).

When landing at Edinburgh (EDI), sit on the Left side for the best views. Approaching EDI typically uses runway 06 (eastbound) or 24 (westbound). Left-side seats during a 06 approach offer views of the Firth of Forth, the Pentland Hills, and Edinburgh's Old Town and castle on the ridge. During 24 approaches, left seats show the Pentland Hills and southern Edinburgh suburbs. Notable sights include: Firth of Forth (north), Pentland Hills (south), Edinburgh Castle and Old Town ridge (center), Arthur's Seat volcanic peak (southeast).

The flight from Oslo Gardermoen (OSL) to Edinburgh (EDI) takes Approximately 2 hours.

The flight crosses the North Sea at roughly 5,000-8,000 feet altitude. Midway, passengers see open water with occasional oil platforms visible as small dots. The Scottish coast appears gradually, with the Lothian coastline and East Lothian's agricultural plains becoming visible about 30 minutes before landing. The Firth of Forth widens as you approach Edinburgh, with the Forth Road Bridge and rail bridge visible as thin lines crossing the water during descent.
