Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏜️

Al-Nafud Desert

Witness the striking red sand dunes of the northern Arabian Peninsula shortly after departing Amman.

🏙️

Persian Gulf Coastline

Clear views of the blue gulf waters and the dense urban layouts of Kuwait City and Dammam.

🏗️

UAE Skylines

Spot the iconic Burj Khalifa and the man-made Palm Jumeirah islands if the flight path hugs the coast.

⛰️

Hajar Mountains

The rugged, dark ridges of northern Oman provide a dramatic contrast to the desert landscape.

🌊

Arabian Sea Crossing

A long, serene stretch of deep blue water before reaching the Indian subcontinent.

🏖️

Vasai Creek

Upon arrival in Mumbai, look for the intricate mangroves and creeks that define the city's northern boundaries.

Book a morning departure for the best light over the deserts. Ensure your window is clean for the descent into Mumbai, as the humidity can often create haze; the left side provides the most reliable view of the varied coastline of Maharashtra.

Right Side Highlights

🐪

Arabian Interior

Vast, seemingly endless desert landscapes stretching toward the Rub' al Khali to the south.

🏢

Abu Dhabi Shoreline

Distant views of the UAE capital's coastal development and the turquoise mangroves.

🇴

Gulf of Oman

The southern horizon as you exit the Arabian Peninsula and begin the oceanic crossing.

🌅

Sea Sunset

On evening flights, the right side offers spectacular sunsets over the Arabian Sea.

🌉

Bandra-Worli Sea Link

Depending on the wind and approach, you may see Mumbai's most iconic bridge stretching across the bay.

🏙️

South Mumbai Skyline

Get a glimpse of the high-rises and the 'Queen's Necklace' curve of Marine Drive during the final approach.

The right side is ideal for afternoon or evening flights to catch the sunset over the ocean. When landing in Mumbai, this side often offers the most iconic views of the city's southern skyline if the aircraft approaches from the west.
