Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers spectacular views of the Zagros Mountains in Iran, the vast Indus River Delta, and a more dramatic perspective of the lush Burmese mountains and northern Thai highlands.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏜️

Mesopotamian Plains

Vast desert landscapes and the historic fertile crescent between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers.

πŸ”οΈ

Zagros Mountains

Snow-capped peaks and rugged tectonic ridges stretching across southwestern Iran.

🌊

Indus River Delta

The complex network of waterways where the Indus meets the Arabian Sea near Karachi.

πŸ™οΈ

Northern India Cities

Views of sprawling urban centers like Ahmedabad and the outskirts of Kolkata.

⛰️

Arakan Mountains

Dense, jungle-covered mountain ranges in Myanmar as the flight heads toward Southeast Asia.

🏞️

Chao Phraya Basin

The fertile green plains and winding river networks of central Thailand during the descent.

Sit on the left (Port) side for the best sunrise views as you travel eastbound. On night flights, the oil refinery flares in the Persian Gulf create a unique glowing landscape. For the best view of the Zagros mountains, choose a seat ahead of the wing to avoid engine heat haze.

Right Side Highlights
7.6
🌊

Dead Sea

Visible shortly after departure from Amman, providing a view of the lowest point on Earth.

πŸŒƒ

Persian Gulf Coastline

Glittering lights of the UAE and the distinctive artificial islands of Dubai if the route tracks south.

πŸ’§

Arabian Sea

A vast expanse of deep blue ocean as the flight crosses from the Middle East to South Asia.

🌴

Deccan Plateau

The elevated heartland of the Indian subcontinent, featuring varied agricultural patterns.

πŸ–οΈ

Bay of Bengal

Wide panoramic views of the sea before making landfall over the Irrawaddy Delta.

πŸ›³οΈ

Gulf of Thailand

Distant views of the turquoise waters and cargo ships waiting to enter the port of Bangkok.

The right side is ideal for seeing the Dead Sea immediately after takeoff. If the flight is during the day, the glare from the sun is more prominent on this side when flying east-southeast, so keep your window shade ready. During monsoon season (June–Sept), expect massive towering cumulonimbus clouds over the Bay of Bengal.
