Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Tromso to London. Left side delivers the best of both ends: the Lyngen Alps and Tromsøya on departure, and the North Downs approach into Gatwick on arrival. During the cruise over Norway and the North Sea the left side also faces south toward the Norwegian coast as the aircraft tracks southwest, offering occasional glimpses of the Norwegian fjord coastline before crossing open water.

During takeoff from Tromso (TOS), sit on the Left side for the best views. Tromsø Airport runway 01/19 means southbound departures climb out heading roughly south, putting the island of Tromsøya and the dramatic Lyngen Alps to the left (east). The Tromsø Bridge and the city center on the island are clearly visible below before the aircraft banks southwest toward the Norwegian Sea. Notable sights include: Lyngen Alps (east), Tromsøya island and city center, Tromsø Bridge, Ullsfjorden.

When landing at Gatwick (LGW), sit on the Left side for the best views. Gatwick's runway 08L/26R means westbound arrivals approach from the east, so the aircraft tracks over the Surrey and Sussex countryside on final. Left-side seats get views over the North Downs and the southern outskirts of London including Croydon, while right-side seats face open farmland to the south. Notable sights include: North Downs ridge (Surrey), M23 motorway corridor, Crawley town center, Surrey Hills.

The flight from Tromso (TOS) to Gatwick (LGW) takes Approximately 3 hours 30 minutes.

After leaving northern Norway the route crosses the Norwegian Sea, passing south of the Lofoten Islands region. The aircraft then crosses the Norwegian coast near Bodø or Trondheim latitude before tracking over the North Sea. The Scottish coast near Aberdeen or the Moray Firth may be visible on descent, followed by the English Midlands and then the Surrey countryside on approach to Gatwick.
