BLR → ATQ
Which side of the plane to sit from Kempegowda International Airport (Bangalore) to Sri Guru Ram Dass Jee International Airport (Amritsar)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side is superior for this North-bound route as it provides a vantage point for the Aravalli Range and the distant, majestic silhouettes of the Himalayan peaks upon approach to Amritsar.

Aravalli Range
View the ancient, rugged peaks of the Aravalli mountains as you fly over Rajasthan and Haryana.
Himalayan Horizon
On clear days, the snow-capped peaks of the Dhauladhar range and the Greater Himalayas are visible in the distance to the northeast.
River Crossings
Overhead views of major river systems including the Narmada and the winding Beas River during the final approach.
Amritsar Outskirts
Clear views of the densely packed urban planning of Amritsar and the surrounding historical landscape just before landing.
The right side is a must for morning flights when the sun illuminates the Himalayan peaks to the east. Try to sit away from the wing for an unobstructed view of the mountain horizon. In winter, look for the 'white line' of the Himalayas which becomes much more prominent after a fresh snowfall.

Bangalore Urban Sprawl
Aerial view of the rapidly expanding tech corridors and lakes of Northern Bangalore shortly after takeoff.
Thar Desert Fringe
As the flight crosses Rajasthan, witness the transition from semi-arid scrubland to the golden sands of the desert edge.
Punjab's Agricultural Grid
During descent, the landscape turns into a vibrant patchwork of green and gold fields, showcasing India's breadbasket.
Indira Gandhi Canal
Spot the long, life-giving ribbon of water cutting through the arid landscape of the northwest.
The left side is ideal for evening flights to witness the sunset over the horizon. Keep an eye out for the twinkling lights of coastal Gujarat if the flight path takes a more westerly corridor. For the best desert photography, mid-afternoon light provides the most dramatic shadows on the dunes.
