Which side of the plane to sit from Abu Dhabi International Airport (Abu Dhabi) to Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (Dhaka)?
Left Side of the Plane
The Left Side is generally superior for this route as it offers dramatic views of the rugged Makran coastline and the expansive Indian plains, while avoiding the direct glare of the sun on eastbound daytime flights.

Abu Dhabi Skyline
Aerial views of Yas Island, Ferrari World, and the unique architecture of the UAE capital shortly after takeoff.
Makran Coastal Range
Dramatic, moon-like rock formations and folded mountains along the southern coast of Balochistan, Pakistan.
Thar Desert
The vast, golden expanse of the Great Indian Desert stretching across the border of Pakistan and Rajasthan.
Ganges River
The winding path of the holy river as the flight traverses the fertile Indo-Gangetic plains of Northern India.
Dhaka Metropolis
A bird's-eye view of the incredibly dense urban landscape and the Buriganga River during the final descent.
For the best experience, choose a seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. Since the flight travels East, this side remains in the shade during morning departures, making it easier to photograph the Pakistani coastline and Indian topography without window glare.

Gulf of Oman
Deep blue waters dotted with massive oil tankers and cargo ships heading toward the Strait of Hormuz.
Rann of Kutch
The unique, seasonal salt marshes of Gujarat which appear as a shimmering white expanse from 35,000 feet.
Karachi Coastline
Views of the sprawling port infrastructure and the urban density of Pakistan's largest city.
The Sundarbans
The edge of the world's largest mangrove forest, where the green canopy meets the murky waters of the delta.
Bengal Delta
An incredible network of thousands of small rivers and alluvial islands that define the geography of Bangladesh.
The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights to witness a spectacular sunset over the Arabian Sea. If the flight path takes a southerly route over the Bay of Bengal, you will have a prime view of the Sundarbans' intricate river systems just before landing.
