AMDKUL

Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side is superior for this route as it offers the best perspective of the Malaysian coastline during the descent, including the Langkawi archipelago and Penang Island, along with the rising sun on overnight flights.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Sabarmati Riverfront

Aerial view of Ahmedabad's urban planning and the winding Sabarmati River immediately after takeoff.

🌊

Bay of Bengal Crossing

The transition from the Indian subcontinent's eastern coastline into the vast blue expanse of the bay.

🏝️

Langkawi Archipelago

Dazzling views of the 99 islands making up Langkawi with their turquoise waters and limestone cliffs.

🌉

Penang & George Town

Clear views of the Penang Bridges and the high-rise skyline of George Town as you fly south along the coast.

⛰️

Titiwangsa Mountains

The rugged, jungle-clad mountain range that forms the backbone of Peninsular Malaysia.

Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to witness a spectacular sunrise over the Bay of Bengal. As you approach Malaysia, keep your camera ready about 45 minutes before landing for the best island views. Avoid seats over the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the coastline.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🌾

Deccan Plateau

The varied agricultural landscape and seasonal colors of central India's high plateau.

🏞️

Eastern Ghats

The undulating green ridges of the mountain range before the flight moves over the sea.

🌅

Andaman Sea Horizon

Expansive ocean views and, depending on the path, distant glimpses of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.

🚤

Strait of Malacca

One of the world's busiest shipping lanes, where dozens of massive cargo ships can be seen queuing for port.

🏗️

Port Klang

The massive industrial infrastructure of Malaysia's primary seaport during the final approach.

The right side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Andaman Sea. It also provides a unique industrial perspective of the Malacca Strait's maritime traffic during the descent into KUL. Use a flight tracking app to see if your path takes you near the Andaman Islands for potential distant sightings.
