- Above the Arctic Circle with 24 hours of daylight in summer, Longyearbyen Airport is the world's northernmost airport with scheduled public flights. In this video, I fly in the cockpit onboard SAS' 737 from Oslo to Longyearbyen Airport with breathtaking views. More to come!

this dude is living my dream..
This is probably the most beautiful flight report I've ever seen. Props to you.
Awesome video. I've wanted to go to Svalbard since I was a kid - it being at the very top of the atlas!
Take me with u to work
Take me there I want serve everything ok
I surprised you've not been, its a 'standard' flight from Oslo, no special requirements, like flying between London and Glasgow..!
@@delboy7039 ok ok GREETS from ARUBA
It's gorgeous, but you're best off mixing in several adventures when there as the main town, Longyearbyen, is tiny. If exploring abandoned villages, sailing around chasing polar bears and whales, and husky-sledding sound like your idea of fun in summer, I warmly recommend the place (and indeed am hopefully going back for a second visit this year after being up there in 2019).
Stunning, absolutely stunning! The scenery is what you said "breathtaking" and the music adds to the vibe. Liked!
Thanks man :)
How long were you in Svalbard?
Most welcome. :)
I’ve watched so many of your videos. This hands down is the most enjoyable.
This was such a special episode, I was just remembering this today. Absolutely beautiful with the views and the music, you can really sense the magic. And just incredible that you got to be in the cockpit. What a memorable experience. I had the dual-purpose of coming back here to see what the aircraft and origin airport for the flight was, because I want to recreate it too. :)
WOW everything about this trip is beautiful. The scenery was absolutely stunning. You can't beat those views anywhere in the world.
That break through the clouds and to see the snow covered tops below is just amazing!
Good show!
Excellent report Dantorp,congrats !!!
wow, just wow! Love the cockpit video, thank you so much for the view!
Spectacular work Mr. Torp. Thank you for sharing!
That was a particularly good trip report - one of the best ive seen.
Awesome trip Dude. I was amazed at the amount of snow and glaciers that still exist in that part of the world. Summer there is a bit cooler than the lower 48. Glad you had an opportunity to ride the jump seat. You got to see what the folks up front do.
The views out the front windows can be - Spectacular!
Cheers ...
What a great video! Thank you for sharing your trip. I really like the telephone at 15:13. The hunk of glacier ice was amazing, as were the views on the boat rides.
Loved the video, Daniel! Breathtaking view indeed
Must have been an amazing experience - great footage!
That was awesome, seeing the takeoff and landing from the cockpit. Thanks for this very interesting video.
Oh my goodness, what a wonderful video...it really brings back many fond memories of my travels in the Arctic over the years, thanks so much.
An absolutely stunningly beautiful video. So well done! Fantastic! Thanks once again! Stellar job! I really enjoyed it so much!
Such an amazing scenery up there !
Amazing video, Thanks for sharing ! ;-)
I flew there in summer 2013 with norwegian. We left oslo around midnight, and arrived in complete daylight at around 3 am in longyearbyen. It was the most quietest and peaceful places I have visited. Even in summer we had light snow on some of the days.
This was the most awesome flight I ever seen. loved it
That approach was incredible, what an amazing place. Great vid, thanks. I really want to go now.
This is one of the best videos I've seen on any vlogs. Great photography and information. Super work, Daniel!
some amazing views there! So lucky that you got to go in the flight deck
Excellent job Daniel! Your trip reports are very focused on the experience of the airline.
Wow! What an exciting video! Loved watching that view from the cockpit! Your videos keep getting better and better haha Thanks Dan 😊
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing the cockpit view! I was in Svalbard in 2010 for a polar bear expedition.
Stunning views! What an experience this would be! I'd love to visit. Thanks for sharing :)
Fabulous video Daniel, thank you for sharing this adventure. You are very talented
How cool to see Longyearbyen again from the air. I was luck to be offered sit in the cockpit already back in 1979, travelling alone as a schoolboy. Since then, I went to Svalbard twice - and still occasionally using flight simulators. This kind of trip should be on the bucket list for any adventurer.
Wow wow wow, what amazing scenery and I wish I was there now
That was awesome. I can't explain why going so far north interests me so much. You have whetted my appetite for taking more northerly trips. Thank you.
This is beautiful it made me cry
Two words ....Epic and Awesome. Thank you so much for sharing this adventure.
I'm glad you liked it Richard!
That’s 3 words
Has to be the most awesome report and trip. Many thanks
Longyearbyen from above. Stunningly beautiful.
YOU are officially my HERO! Awesome footage as usual.
Just one word: BREATHTAKING!!!
Great video Dan!
An impressive tour.. Truly God's country up there, so clean. 24 hrs of sunlight would be something I'd have to get used to. Thanks so much Dan..
Porschedude8 But it's dark a half year.
Magnificent views of snowy peaks and the final approach with the GoPro! A fantasy trip to the Land of the Ice Bears.
That was great to watch ! Thanks DA
Thanks for the ride! That was a spectacular landing!👍
Very breathtaking views from the cockpit. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing. Courtesy of your generosity, we've traveled there without being there.
I really enjoy all your videos but this one is fantastic. The views above, cutting through, then under the clouds were breathtaking! Thanks so much for sharing this :-)
stunning...wish we could have seen more. Loved the music as you were flying into Svalbard.
I truly enjoy all your videos and adventures but this one was especially captivating. Thanks for sharing this remote jewel with all of us and again my appreciation for making the globe our own backyard!!
Dan your amazing you videos are so incredible!!!! Thank you !!
I really enjoy watching this. I was in Longyearbyen last week on a cruise :)
A wonderful video Sir! You make it seem that the viewer is right there with you. Well done to you.
Excellent! Truly enjoyed! Thanks.
Fantastic Dan, what a great Travelogue. Music, scenes and cockpit video superb, good job. Regards Keith in Australia.
Simply loved the video!!! Amazing footage from the cockpit! ✈️😍✈️😍✈️
I would recommend another video like this to Barrow, Alaska!
Beautiful...beautiful. Thank you for sharing. Greetings from Brazil
this is the most beautiful video i have ever watched. many many thanks 👏👏👏
Hi dan, i've watched many of your video but this one is my favorite video of yours. This is not about flashy and expensive first class video but this is more than that. You are very lucky to be seated on the cockpit and see those breath taking views. This video worth miliions of views than those flashy airplane review and kudos for you to add those great background music. Keep up on your great video dan. You are one of the best avgeek reviewers out there.
Love the cockpit shots!
Got to fly in the cockpit on a SAS MD-80 from Copenhagen to Frankfurt. I was 11 years old. So much fun. Thanks for sharing.
Svalbard is definitely on my list of places to visit. It looks so beautiful!!
Thanks for uploading and giving me very enjoyable 20 minutes!
Nice video. Brings back some good old memories from my trip there.
thank you for posting this video so inspiring...
Wow I know that must have been awesome to sit in the cockpit and take this all in kudos to you!👍🔥💯🙌😎
Definitely in my bucket list, thank you for sharing
My pleasure!
Compassionate_Traveller me too!
This video made me want to visit. It's now on my list of places to go because of this video. Thank you for posting this. Love the video
Dreamy is the word for this adventure at Svalbard. Want to fly there for once... for sure! Loved the trip!!
What an amazing video, love it!!!!
Excellent flight, beautiful city, fantastic landscape, “daylight” during the night.
I want to visit!!! 😻
Thank you for sharing! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😊
Thanks for uploading, I am flying Oslo to Longyearbyen in 2 days, very excited!
Like this guy, I was privileged enough to have a cockpit ''jump seat'' - view too, but many years ago. It was a short while before 9/11 of course, on a flight from Manchester to Ibiza and back. My cousin was a young Boeing 757 first officer with the then Britannia airways. He arranged it especialy, including all the officialdom and red tape. He captains a Boeing 787 Dream-liner now for Jet-Star back in Australia, where he grew up.
Its an experience that many a layman never gets to have, obviously nowadays. Its worlds apart from the more mundane feeling being sat back in the main cabin.
Your soon able to realise the amount of professionalism and technical competence that a pilot possesses, not to mention the responsibility they command for the safety of the aircraft and all its passengers. But the view and the thrill you get being sat right there with the crew is truly amazing.
Watching 'pilots eye view' video's like this one really brings back the feeling I experienced all those years ago. This fella is one lucky guy to have flown 'up front' like I did. Just a great video, thank you.
One of the most amazing video that I've seen! Keep it up and going.. love your channel :-)
Agree about SAS! Beautiful video!
Wow what beautiful views and what an experience to be in the cockpit!
Stunning vistas! Well done. 👍
Awesome experience, from an awesome guy an awesome place and the cockpit ride.
Wonders of Nature - very thankful to you for this amazing video. I liked the most.
Absolutely amazing.. Thank you for share..
You always have good music to your videos!Great job!
Beautiful
View , this is my next destination
Amazing, I'm absolutely in awe. I'm so fascinated by that soviet town. Thanks for the great video
One of the few busts of Lenin that still stand. One of the others is close the the south pole.
I was there in 2016...and it was one of my most beautiful trips I ever made...coming from Frankfurt via Copenhagen via Oslo and after 12 hours I arrived in Longyearbyen....
This is a wicked video best ones ever I seen the best part I liked Is the cockpit you see these pilots are so professional and plus the view in front u see the runways.
This trip is defiantly on my bucket list after that video 😍😍
I am completely fascinated with Svalbard. Excellent video
Great Trip and great view out of the cockpit. :-)
Another exceptional Dantrop Aviation video!
It is a very intriguing and extreme location which makes this a very exciting video. Thanks for the good work! Jon-Santa Cruz, CA.
How exciting! I would love to be in a cockpit some day and to visit Longyearbyen someday!
I'm not one usually to comment, but this was a great piece you've posted here. So beautiful, and so unique. The airport reminded me a bit of USH, which although probably a little larger is basically a runway with only either sea or mountains depending which way you look. And I guess it's the southernmost airport in the world (or at least regularly scheduled service). If you haven't already gone, I recommend you do!
Another great video man.
Awesome video. Appreciate the effort.
That was incredible. I am from the US and never heard of where you went, it was gorgeous. Thanks for sharing.
What a trip this must have been !
It looks just fantastic and makes myself and my husband want to jump on a jet and head to Svalbard...
Although it's a long way from Sydney.
Have had 3 trips in the cockpit over the years..
Love the videos .. James.
I'm fascinated by Svalbard and already in love with a place I've never been to. I've wondered but not yet checked the route in but of course YT knows all things and sent me your video. I can't wait to see the rest of your video; the pilots are prepping for take off; I'm almost as excited as if it were me going! Wonder if you'll see my comment as it's 3 years since you posted this video. 😊
EDITED TO ADD: Your video confirmed my fascination with Svalbard even more, it is so beautiful and amazing, really touching to see what a very special place it is, your video was great and I bet you have amazing photos too! I'm subbing to your channel too. :) Thank you!
That's really incredible place.. ❤ Once I want to go there. 😊
lol!i swear, your'e one of the luckiest avgeekers on you tube man!great video!!
I ended my career after 16+ years working for a hydraulics group, built one off custom hydraulic units and the machinery they powered up for toe offshore oil and gas industry. It was a very interesting job, I loved it. Got to travel out to the rigs and platforms guite a bit. I always counted the helicopter rides as a big bonus, just love flying.....
Fascinating Svalbard
