BLR → CDG
Which side of the plane to sit from Kempegowda International Airport (Bangalore) to Charles de Gaulle International Airport (Paris)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Hindu Kush mountains and a better perspective of the Paris skyline during the standard landing patterns into CDG.
Thar Desert
The expansive golden sands stretching across the Indo-Pakistan border region.
Hindu Kush
Spectacular, high-altitude snow peaks visible while traversing Afghan and Pakistani airspace.
Black Sea Coast
The deep blue waters and green coastline of northern Turkey and Eastern Europe.
Carpathian Mountains
Rugged peaks and dense forests of Romania and Central Europe visible during the mid-day leg.
Paris Skyline
A high probability of seeing the Eiffel Tower and city center during the descent into CDG from the east.
This side is generally cooler as it faces north, away from the direct sun. It is the best choice for mountain enthusiasts wishing to see the Hindu Kush. For the best arrival views, monitor the flight map; if landing on runways 26L or 27R, the right side offers a classic view of the Paris city center.
Western Ghats
Breathtaking views of the lush Sahyadri mountain range immediately after departing Bangalore.
Gulf of Kutch
Observe the intricate coastline of Gujarat and the industrial ports of the Arabian Sea.
Zagros Mountains
Stunning views of the folded limestone ridges and deep valleys across central Iran.
Mesopotamia
The winding Tigris and Euphrates rivers cutting through the desert landscapes of Iraq.
Southern Alps
Distant glimpses of the snow-capped Swiss and French Alps as you enter European airspace.
Ideal for early morning departures to catch the sunrise over the Deccan Plateau. During the mid-flight over the Middle East, use window shades as the southern sun can be intense. This side is better for seeing the Mediterranean coastline if the flight path tracks further south.
