Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Oslo to Keflavik. While takeoff offers good fjord views on the right, the landing approach on the left provides more dramatic and distinctive scenery—Iceland's volcanic landscape is far more visually striking than Norway's forested fjords. The Reykjanes lava fields are a genuine highlight of this route.

During takeoff from Oslo Gardermoen (OSL), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right-side seats capture the Oslofjord and its eastern shoreline as the aircraft climbs northwestward. You'll see the fjord's intricate islands and peninsulas receding beneath you, with the Oslo metropolitan area visible briefly to the left before the fjord dominates the view. Notable sights include: Oslofjord (primary feature), Nesodden Peninsula, Hovedøya Island, eastern Oslo suburbs.

When landing at Keflavik Nas (KEF), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left-side seats offer the best views during the final approach into Keflavik. You'll see the Reykjanes Peninsula's volcanic terrain, lava fields, and the Atlantic coastline as the aircraft descends toward the runway. The dark basalt landscape and coastal cliffs are distinctive and visually striking. Notable sights include: Reykjanes Peninsula lava fields, Atlantic coastline and cliffs, Keflavik town, volcanic terrain.

The flight from Oslo Gardermoen (OSL) to Keflavik Nas (KEF) takes Approximately 2 hours 15 minutes.

The flight path crosses the North Sea at roughly 62°N latitude. You'll pass over open ocean for most of the journey with no major landmarks visible. As you approach Iceland (roughly 1 hour into flight), the first land visible is typically the southern coast of Iceland around 63°N. The Vatnajökull glacier region may be visible on the right (east) side during descent if weather permits, appearing as a white expanse on the horizon. The flight generally maintains a northwesterly bearing across open water with minimal scenic features until the final 30 minutes of descent toward Keflavik.
