Which side of the plane to sit from Kempegowda International Airport (Bangalore) to Indira Gandhi International Airport (Delhi)?
Left Side of the Plane
The Left Side offers superior views of the rugged Deccan Plateau, the Narmada river crossing, and the ancient Aravalli Range during the descent, especially during golden hour flights.
Deccan Traps
Observe the unique basaltic step-like formations and volcanic plateaus of central Maharashtra.
Aravalli Range
Catch glimpses of one of the world's oldest fold mountain ranges as you approach the NCR.
Narmada River
A prominent silver ribbon cutting through the landscape of Madhya Pradesh.
Sunset Horizon
On evening flights, the western sky transforms into a canvas of deep oranges and purples.
Book the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight and heat. In the evening, this side is prime for sunset photography. Watch for the change from the green Karnataka landscape to the arid plains of Rajasthan.
Godavari & Krishna
Massive river systems and their fertile basins visible shortly after departing Bangalore.
Vindhya Escarpment
The dramatic northern edge of the Deccan plateau rising above the Gangetic plains.
Delhi NCR Skyline
Expansive views of the dense urban grid and the Yamuna river during the final approach.
Agra Environs
Depending on the air traffic corridor, you may spot the Yamuna river winding near the city of Agra.
The right side is excellent for seeing the river confluences of central India. If the flight follows a standard arrival route from the east, you will get a panoramic view of the Yamuna River and the massive sprawl of South Delhi.
