Which side of the plane to sit from Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (Mumbai) to Jamnagar Airport (Jamnagar)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side provides an incredible vantage point for the Mumbai coastline, the transition across the Gulf of Khambhat, and the massive industrial refinery complexes near Jamnagar.
Mumbai Metropolis
Stunning views of the skyscrapers of South Mumbai and the Bandra-Worli Sea Link during climb-out.
Vaitarna River Creeks
Detailed views of the intricate network of salt pans and mangroves in the Vasai-Virar region.
Gulf of Khambhat
Observe the dramatic silt-filled waters where the Narmada and Tapti rivers meet the sea.
Refinery Hub
Aerial perspective of the world's largest oil refinery complexes (Reliance and Nayara) just before landing.
Jamnagar City
A clear view of the cityโs layout, including the Lakhota Lake and Palace area during the final approach.
Sit on the right for the best landmark visibility. For morning flights, use a window shade to mitigate glare. The descent into Jamnagar is particularly interesting as you fly over massive industrial parksโhave your camera ready about 10 minutes before landing. Avoid the wing-view seats (rows 12-18 on most A320s) for the clearest ground visibility.
Arabian Sea Expanse
Uninterrupted views of the deep blue Arabian Sea shortly after departure from Mumbai.
Saurashtra Coastline
As the plane turns inland, catch glimpses of the rugged beaches and cliffs of the southern Gujarat coast.
Evening Sunsets
On late afternoon flights, this side offers front-row seats to spectacular sunsets over the ocean horizon.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the direct glare of the sun. While mostly oceanic, it offers a serene flying experience. Keep an eye out for fishing fleets dotting the water near the Gujarat coast.
