BLR → IXJ
Which side of the plane to sit from Kempegowda International Airport (Bangalore) to Jammu Airport (Jammu)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side is preferred for this northbound journey as it provides a front-row seat to the rising Himalayan horizon and the Shivalik foothills as you descend into Jammu.
Nandi Hills
The famous hill fortress near Bangalore is visible almost immediately after departing from BLR airport.
Godavari Crossing
Views of the massive riverbeds of Central India as the flight heads toward the northern plains.
Himalayan Panorama
The spectacular sight of snow-capped peaks of the Greater Himalayas appearing on the horizon during descent.
Shivalik Range
The lush green, rolling hills that mark the transition from the plains to the mountainous Jammu region.
Jammu City & Tawi
A clear view of the Tawi River and the 'City of Temples' during the final banking maneuvers for landing.
The right side is the 'mountain side.' For the most dramatic views of the Himalayas, choose an early morning flight when the sun illuminates the peaks from the east. Ensure you sit away from the wing (rows 1-10 or 25+) for an unobstructed view of the Tawi River valley during the final approach into Jammu.
Deccan Terrain
The rugged, ancient rock formations and granite boulders of the Karnataka plateau shortly after takeoff.
Tungabhadra River
Aerial views of the river winding through the dry landscapes of Northern Karnataka.
Thar Desert Fringes
The western horizon displays the hazy, golden hues of the Rajasthani desert landscape during mid-flight.
Punjab Farmsteads
A vast geometric patchwork of green and gold agricultural fields as you cross into North India.
Pakistan Border
Depending on the flight corridor, the distant horizon to the west marks the international border area.
The left side is ideal for evening flights to capture the sunset over the vast plains of India. During the winter months, watch for the low-lying mist that often blankets the Punjab region, creating a surreal 'sea of clouds' effect at lower altitudes.
