BKK â HYD
Which side of the plane to sit from Suvarnabhumi Airport (Bangkok) to Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (Hyderabad)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a superior view of the Andaman Islands during the mid-flight crossing and a spectacular entry into India over the lush Godavari River delta.
Chao Phraya River
A stunning view of the winding river through the heart of Bangkok shortly after takeoff.
Andaman Islands
Small, emerald-green islands visible in the deep blue of the Bay of Bengal approximately 90 minutes into flight.
Godavari Delta
Intricate patterns of water and vibrant green agriculture where the river meets the Indian coast.
Eastern Ghats
The rolling hills and rugged valleys of India's eastern mountain range as you leave the coast.
Historic Hyderabad
Aerial glimpses of the Old City and its unique architectural heritage during the southern approach.
Choose the left side for morning flights to see the Godavari Delta clearly. The Andaman islands appear mid-flight; keep a keen eye out as they can be easy to miss. During the post-monsoon months (October-December), the landscapes of Andhra Pradesh are exceptionally green and vivid.
Bangkok Metro
The vast urban landscape and industrial zones extending toward the northern horizon from BKK.
Tenasserim Range
Lushly forested mountains forming the natural border of Thailand and Myanmar shortly after departure.
Chilika Lake
The distinct, massive shape of Asia's largest brackish water lagoon visible to the north when entering India.
Bay of Bengal
Wide-angle views of the sea, often featuring dramatic monsoon cloud formations in the summer.
HITEC City
The modern glass-and-steel skyscraper clusters of Hyderabad's technology district during the final descent.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as it remains in the shade, providing better conditions for photography. It offers the best perspective of the modern IT corridors of Cyberabad during arrival. Look for the rugged Myanmar coastline and Tenasserim hills roughly 30 minutes after leaving Bangkok.
