Aerial perspective of the turquoise waters and white sand beaches of the UAE's cultural district.
Musandam Fjords
Dramatic rocky peninsulas and deep blue inlets of Oman visible if the flight path tracks slightly north.
Kerala Coastline
The emerald green landscape of India's southwest coast as the plane follows the shoreline toward Trivandrum.
Western Ghats
A glimpse of the misty mountain ranges and dense forests that run parallel to the Indian coast.
Kerala Backwaters
Intricate networks of lagoons and canals visible during the final approach into Trivandrum.
For the best experience, choose a seat away from the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Indian coastline. On morning flights, the sun will be behind you, providing perfectly lit views of the Western Ghats. Watch for the glittering city lights of Mangalore and Kochi if flying at night.
