Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

While both sides offer scenic views, the right side is generally superior for the approach into Singapore, offering iconic views of the Malacca Strait shipping lanes and the city skyline.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🌊

Mahanadi River Delta

The intricate network of rivers and wetlands where the Mahanadi flows into the Bay of Bengal near Odisha.

🚢

Malacca Strait

Observation of one of the world's busiest shipping lanes, with hundreds of tankers and cargo ships visible from high altitude.

🌋

Sumatran Coastline

The distant, mist-covered mountains and tropical rainforests of northern Sumatra, Indonesia, across the strait.

⚓

Singapore Anchorage

An incredible sight of hundreds of vessels anchored in the Singapore Strait, showcasing the scale of the global maritime hub.

🏙️

Marina Bay Skyline

During standard approaches to Changi Airport, the right side often provides a clear view of Marina Bay Sands and the CBD.

The right side is essential for sunset views on evening flights. For the landing in Singapore, sit on this side to see the massive 'parking lot' of ships in the strait. Avoid seats over the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the skyline during the final descent.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🏙️

Ahmedabad Urban Area

Aerial view of the Sabarmati River and the dense urban layout of Ahmedabad shortly after takeoff.

⛰️

Eastern Ghats

Bird's-eye view of the rolling green hills and rugged terrain as the flight crosses towards the eastern coast of India.

🏝️

Andaman Archipelago

Stunning vistas of the North and Middle Andaman Islands, characterized by dense tropical forests and turquoise reef borders.

🏖️

Malay Peninsula

Views of the western coastline of Thailand and Malaysia, including distant glimpses of the Isthmus of Kra.

🏗️

Johor Strait

The narrow waterway separating Malaysia and Singapore, featuring heavy industrial infrastructure and the Causeway.

Choose the left side for morning departures to witness a spectacular sunrise over the Bay of Bengal. It is also the better side for viewing the primary landmasses of the Andaman Islands roughly 3 hours into the journey.
