BLR → HYD
Which side of the plane to sit from Kempegowda International Airport (Bangalore) to Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (Hyderabad)?

The left side offers a superior vantage point for the iconic Nandi Hills shortly after takeoff and provides a clearer view of the historical Gooty Fort and the rugged Deccan rock formations during the cruise phase.

Nandi Hills
Dramatic views of the ancient hill fortress and Skandagiri peaks shortly after departing BLR.
Gooty Fort
A magnificent 7th-century shell-shaped fortification visible on a steep granite hill mid-flight.
Anantapur Cityscape
Clear aerial perspective of the urban center nestled within the semi-arid Andhra plains.
HITEC City
Bird's-eye view of Hyderabad's high-rise tech corridor during the final approach.
Book a window seat on the left for morning flights (06:00-08:00) to see the mist settling around Nandi Hills without sun glare. Watch for the Penna River crossing approximately 25 minutes into the flight. This side is also better for spotting the financial district skyline during landing.

BLR Terminal
Excellent view of the Kempegowda International Airport's unique architecture during initial climb.
Osman Sagar Lake
A massive reservoir also known as Gandipet, providing a scenic blue contrast to the rocky terrain.
Nehru Outer Ring Road
The perfectly circular 8-lane expressway that defines the outskirts of modern Hyderabad.
Nallamala Fringe
Distant views of the eastern ghats' greenery if the flight path tracks slightly eastward.
The right side is ideal for evening flights to witness the sunset over the Deccan Plateau. During the descent into HYD, look for the symmetrical patterns of the Outer Ring Road. Avoid this side on morning flights as the eastern sun can be quite intense at cruising altitude.
