BOMATQ

Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the Indian sub-continent's diverse interior, including the ancient Aravalli Range and the majestic silhouette of the Himalayas on the northern horizon during clear days.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🏙️

Mumbai Skyline

Stunning views of the Sanjay Gandhi National Park and the dense urban sprawl of Mumbai's suburbs.

⛰️

Aravalli Mountain Range

Bird's-eye view of one of the world's oldest fold mountain ranges cutting through Rajasthan.

💧

Major River Systems

Crossings over the Narmada and Tapti rivers, which appear as silver ribbons snaking through the landscape.

🏔️

Himalayan Horizon

On clear days, the snow-capped peaks of the Dhauladhar range become visible to the northeast during descent.

🕌

Amritsar Cityscape

A dense urban view of Amritsar, with the possibility of spotting the Golden Temple complex near the border.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to enjoy soft lighting on the Aravalli hills. For the best chance to see the Himalayas, travel during the clear post-monsoon months (October-November) or late winter. Aim for a seat ahead of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the mountains during the descent into ATQ.

Left Side Highlights
6.5
🌊

Arabian Sea Coastline

Panoramic views of the Mumbai shoreline and the Vasai Creek immediately after takeoff from BOM.

🏭

Gujarat Industrial Belt

Aerial views of the massive industrial complexes near Surat and the Gulf of Khambhat.

🏜️

Thar Desert Fringes

The landscape transitions into the arid, golden hues of the Rajasthani desert plains.

🌾

Punjab Heartland

A patchwork quilt of lush green and yellow mustard fields as you enter the fertile plains of Punjab.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the rising sun. Look for the distinct change in soil color as you move from the Deccan traps to the sandy northern plains. During monsoon season, this side offers dramatic views of cloud formations over the Arabian Sea.
