Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side provides a superior perspective of the rugged Satpura Range and the most iconic view of the Triveni Sangam confluence during the final approach into Allahabad.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

Sahyadri Ridges

Dramatic aerial views of the Western Ghats' northern spurs, including the famous Lonavala and Khandala hill stations.

💧

Narmada River Valley

The wide, shimmering waters of the Narmada River as the flight traverses through central Madhya Pradesh.

🌳

Satpura Forest Cover

Dense stretches of the Satpura Tiger Reserve forests, offering a deep green canopy view during the mid-flight phase.

🤝

Triveni Sangam

The spectacular point where the Ganges and Yamuna rivers meet, recognizable by the distinct colors of the two water bodies.

The right side is essential for photographers wanting to capture the Triveni Sangam. For the clearest views of the Satpura ranges and river systems, afternoon flights are recommended when the sun illuminates the landscape from the west. Look out for the marble rock formations near Jabalpur if the flight path tracks slightly south.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🏙️

Mumbai Metropolitan Area

Sweeping views of the Mumbai skyline and the vast suburban sprawl against the backdrop of the Sanjay Gandhi National Park.

🍷

Nashik Plateau

A birds-eye view of the fertile agricultural lands and vineyards of the Nashik region, known as India's wine capital.

⛰️

Vindhya Escarpments

The northern slopes of the Vindhya mountain range, featuring unique geological formations and seasonal waterfalls.

🐍

Yamuna Meanders

The winding curves of the Yamuna River as it flows through the Gangetic plains toward the confluence.

Choose the left side for morning flights to keep the sun behind the aircraft, minimizing glare on the window. This side is also excellent for viewing the urban expansion of northern Mumbai and the greenery of the Godavari river basin shortly after takeoff.
