Which side of the plane to sit from Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport (Ahmedabad) to Abu Dhabi International Airport (Abu Dhabi)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers a more diverse and geologically interesting view, including the salt flats of Kutch, the dramatic Makran coastline of Pakistan and Iran in the distance, and the final approach over the turquoise waters of the Persian Gulf and Yas Island.
Search flights from AMD to AUH
Rann of Kutch
Unique white salt marshes and wetlands visible shortly after departing Ahmedabad.
Karachi Coastline
On clear days, the sprawling coastline and urban density of Karachi can be seen to the north.
Makran Coastal Range
Stunning views of the moon-like rock formations and ridges along the southern coast of Balochistan.
Strait of Hormuz
The busy maritime gateway where the Gulf of Oman meets the Persian Gulf, dotted with tankers.
Yas Island
Aerial views of the Yas Marina Circuit and Ferrari World's iconic red roof during the final approach.
The right side is ideal for daytime flights to avoid direct glare while seeing the diverse topography of the northern Arabian Sea coast. For the best views of Yas Island and Abu Dhabi's landmarks, monitor the flight path as AUH often uses Runway 13/31, which provides a scenic loop over the coast.

Omani Coastline
Distant views of the rugged cliffs near Muscat as the plane enters the Arabian Peninsula.
Al Khatim Desert
The vast orange dunes of the UAE interior visible during the descent into Abu Dhabi.
On the left side, the sun can be quite intense during morning flights as you travel westward. Choose this side for a sunset view on late afternoon departures, though most of the flight will be over open water until the final approach.
