Our Recommendation
8.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers superior views of the ancient Aravalli Range, the scenic lakes of Udaipur, and stunning sunset vistas over the Rajasthan desert on evening flights.

Left Side Highlights
8.2
๐ŸŒŠ

Konkan Coastline

Dramatic views of the Arabian Sea and Mumbai's northern suburbs during the initial climb.

๐Ÿ™๏ธ

Ahmedabad Urban Sprawl

The dense grid of Gujarat's largest city and the Sabarmati River winding through it.

๐Ÿ’ง

Udaipur Lake System

Glittering patches of blue representing Lake Pichola and Fateh Sagar Lake in the 'City of Lakes'.

โ›ฐ๏ธ

Aravalli Range

Fly parallel to one of the world's oldest fold mountain ranges, showing rugged ridges and valleys.

๐Ÿœ๏ธ

Thar Desert Fringe

The landscape transforms into arid, golden hues as you traverse the edge of the Great Indian Desert.

For the best experience, book an evening flight to witness a spectacular sunset over the desert horizon. During the monsoon season (Juneโ€“September), this side offers views of incredibly lush, green mountain slopes near the Rajasthan border. Sit behind the wing to ensure your view of the Aravalli peaks is unobstructed.

Right Side Highlights
7.5
๐ŸŒฒ

Western Ghats

The mist-covered peaks and deep ravines of the Sahyadri range visible shortly after takeoff.

๐Ÿšค

Narmada & Tapti Rivers

Two of India's major westward-flowing rivers visible as wide silver ribbons cutting across the plains.

๐Ÿฐ

Chittorgarh Fort

Depending on the specific air corridor, the massive hilltop fortifications of Chittorgarh may be visible.

๐Ÿข

Gurugram Skyline

The modern glass skyscrapers and 'Cyber City' hub as the plane enters the National Capital Region.

๐Ÿ›•

Qutub Minar Area

On specific south-to-north landing patterns, the historic ruins of South Delhi are visible during the final descent.

Morning flights are ideal for this side to see the Western Ghats bathed in soft light without the glare of the sun. Keep an eye out for the massive river crossings about 30-40 minutes into the flight. On the final approach into DEL, this side often provides a better view of the sprawling urban density of South Delhi and the Yamuna riverbed.
