Thar Desert
Vast, arid stretches of golden sand and desert vegetation across central Rajasthan.
Rann of Kutch Edge
The white, salt-crusted horizons of the Rann are often visible on the distant western horizon.
Gulf of Khambhat
The dramatic meeting point of the Sabarmati and Mahi rivers with the Arabian Sea.
Surat Coastal Belt
Heavy industrial landscapes and busy shipping ports along the Gujarat coastline.
Mumbai Coastline
Spectacular views of the Bandra-Worli Sea Link and the city's iconic 'Queen's Necklace' shoreline during approach.
Opt for the right side for evening flights to catch a sunset over the Arabian Sea. This side offers the best views of the Mumbai skyline and the sea-bridge if the aircraft approaches from the north. In monsoon, the cloud formations over the coast are particularly dramatic.

Clear views of the 'Pink City' and the surrounding hill forts like Amer and Nahargarh.
Udaipur Lakes

Sanjay Gandhi National Park
A vast green lung visible just before landing, contrasting sharply with the dense Mumbai urban sprawl.
