Which side of the plane to sit from Suvarnabhumi Airport (Bangkok) to Kempegowda International Airport (Bangalore)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the Bangkok city skyline upon departure, the rugged Tenasserim mountain range, and a spectacular approach over the Nandi Hills near Bangalore.
Bangkok Skyline
Unmatched views of the Chao Phraya River and the dense cluster of skyscrapers in Sukhumvit and Sathorn.
Tenasserim Range
Dramatic views of the densely forested mountains that form the natural border between Thailand and Myanmar.
Andaman Islands
Small, emerald-green island clusters visible during the mid-flight crossing of the Andaman Sea.
Eastern Ghats
The ancient, weathered mountain range of India appearing as the plane descends towards the Deccan Plateau.
Nandi Hills
The famous monolithic fortress hill located just north of Kempegowda International Airport during the final approach.
The right side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Bay of Bengal. During the dry season (November to February), visibility is highest, making the mountain views particularly sharp.
Gulf of Thailand
Aerial views of the coastal waters and shipping lanes near Samut Prakan immediately after takeoff.
Myeik Archipelago
Distant views of the hundreds of pristine islands scattered across the Andaman Sea off the coast of Myanmar.
Bay of Bengal
A vast expanse of deep blue water, often featuring large cargo vessels traversing international shipping routes.
Coromandel Coast
The first sight of India, usually crossing near the northern outskirts of Chennai and the Pulicat Lake bird sanctuary.
Deccan Agriculture
A patchwork of fertile farmland and red soil typical of the Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh border regions.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. This side is also better for spotting the Chennai coastline if the flight path tracks slightly further south.
