Our Recommendation
8.4

Left Side of the Plane

The left side is superior for overnight flights departing Bangkok, offering a stunning sunrise over the Coral Sea and a panoramic view of Moreton Bay upon arrival.

Left Side Highlights
8.4
🌊

Gulf of Thailand

Aerial views of the deep blue waters and coastal patterns south of Bangkok shortly after takeoff.

🌴

Borneo Coastline

Gliding over the rugged coastlines and dense tropical rainforests of Kalimantan, Indonesia.

🌅

Pacific Sunrise

A front-row seat to the sun rising over the Pacific Ocean as you approach the Australian continent.

⛰️

Great Dividing Range

The lush, mist-covered peaks of the mountain range that runs along Australia's eastern coast.

🏝️

Moreton Bay Islands

A beautiful bird's-eye view of Bribie, Moreton, and North Stradbroke Islands before landing.

Book an 'A' window seat on the overnight flights (like TG473). You will witness the sunrise about 90 minutes before landing. As you descend into Brisbane, the left side usually offers the best view of the turquoise waters and sand banks of Moreton Bay.

Right Side Highlights
7.9
🏖️

Malay Peninsula

Occasional views of the southern Thai and Malaysian coastline depending on the specific flight corridor.

🏜️

Australian Outback

The dramatic transition from the Arafura Sea to the vast, red, oxidized earth of the Northern Territory.

🌾

Channel Country

Intricate networks of ancient, braided river systems visible across the arid Queensland interior.

🌋

Glass House Mountains

Iconic volcanic plugs that rise abruptly from the coastal plain just north of Brisbane.

🏙️

Brisbane City Skyline

If the flight approaches from the north, enjoy views of the winding Brisbane River and the CBD skyscrapers.

The 'K' window seats are ideal for travelers who enjoy geological features. You will spend several hours crossing the Australian interior; the contrast of the red desert against the blue sky is spectacular in the early morning light. Keep your camera ready for the Glass House Mountains during the final 15 minutes of flight.
