Sit on the Left side of the plane for the best views on flights from Trondheim to Newark. While takeoff offers scenic Norwegian fjord views, the landing approach into Newark provides more dramatic and sustained visual interest with the Hudson River, Manhattan, and major urban infrastructure. The contrast between natural water features and dense urban development is more striking than the Scandinavian departure.

During takeoff from Trondheim Vaernes (TRD), sit on the Right side for the best views. Right seats offer views of Trondheim Fjord and the surrounding Scandinavian coastline during the initial climb. The fjord's distinctive branching pattern and the forested terrain inland are clearly visible within the first 10-15 minutes of flight. Notable sights include: Trondheim Fjord (immediately below during climb), Nidaros Cathedral area in central Trondheim, Trondheimsfjorden's eastern and western arms, forested valleys of Sør-Trøndelag region.

When landing at Newark Liberty International (EWR), sit on the Left side for the best views. Left seats provide excellent views during descent into Newark, particularly of the Hudson River, Manhattan skyline, and the New Jersey industrial corridor. The river's distinctive curves and the urban density contrast are striking from 8,000-15,000 feet on approach. Notable sights include: Hudson River (main channel), Manhattan skyline and East River, Newark Bay and Port Newark container terminals, New Jersey Meadowlands (western approach).

The flight from Trondheim Vaernes (TRD) to Newark Liberty International (EWR) takes Approximately 7.5 to 8.5 hours.

The flight path crosses the North Atlantic, passing over or near the southern tip of Greenland (Davis Strait region), the Canadian Arctic Archipelago's southern islands, and Labrador. At cruise altitude, Greenland's ice sheet edge and the Atlantic's open water are occasionally visible during clear conditions. The majority of the mid-Atlantic crossing offers only open ocean; no significant landmarks are visible for roughly 5-6 hours of flight time.
