Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

While both sides offer views of the Gujarat coastline, the Right Side is superior for its expansive views of the Arabian Sea and the iconic approach into Mumbai, often featuring the city's famous skyline and the Bandra-Worli Sea Link.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Arabian Sea Horizon

A continuous panoramic view of the vast Arabian Sea as the flight tracks south along the coast.

🏖️

Saurashtra Coastline

The rugged western edge of the Saurashtra peninsula, featuring remote beaches and coastal towns.

⚓

Gulf of Khambhat

Crossing the wide mouth of the Gulf where the Narmada and Tapti rivers eventually meet the sea.

🌉

Bandra-Worli Sea Link

The most iconic landmark of Mumbai, usually visible during the final approach into Runway 27.

🏙️

Mumbai Skyline

Stunning views of the skyscrapers in Worli and Lower Parel against the backdrop of the coast.

The right side is highly recommended for the classic 'Mumbai Arrival' experience. For evening flights, you will be treated to a spectacular sunset over the Arabian Sea. Try to secure a seat forward of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Sea Link during landing.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏜️

Kutch Landscape

Aerial views of the unique, arid terrain of the Kutch district immediately after takeoff from Bhuj.

🚢

Gulf of Kutch

Crossing the blue waters of the Gulf, looking east toward the busy shipping lanes and ports.

🏗️

Industrial Gujarat

Views of the massive refineries and industrial clusters near Jamnagar and the Saurashtra region.

🏞️

Sanjay Gandhi National Park

A rare patch of dense green forest visible on the left as the plane descends into the Mumbai suburbs.

🏙️

Navi Mumbai

The planned urban expansion and the hills surrounding the eastern part of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.

Sit on the left if you prefer looking at the changing inland topography of Gujarat and the dense urban planning of Mumbai's eastern suburbs. It is best during morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun reflecting off the Arabian Sea.
