Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior visual experience, showcasing the dramatic Musandam Peninsula, the turquoise reefs of the Persian Gulf, and the iconic Kuwait City skyline upon approach.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌉

Bandra-Worli Sea Link

A clear view of Mumbai's engineering marvel and the northern suburban coastline after takeoff.

⛰️

Musandam Peninsula

Dramatic 'Fjords of Arabia' with jagged limestone cliffs meeting the Strait of Hormuz.

🏙️

UAE Coastline

Distant views of the Dubai and Sharjah skylines and the northern emirates' coastal development.

🪸

Persian Gulf Reefs

Shallow turquoise waters and coral formations visible while cruising along the northern Gulf route.

🇰🇼

Kuwait City Skyline

Direct views of the Kuwait Towers and the Liberation Tower during the final approach into KWI.

Sit on the right for the best photography lighting during morning and afternoon flights, as you will be facing away from the sun. This side is also preferred for spotting the distinct landmarks of Kuwait City during the typical landing patterns.

Left Side Highlights
6.8
🌊

Mumbai South Coast

Aerial view of Colaba, the Gateway of India, and the southern harbor during initial climb.

🏜️

Empty Quarter Vistas

Expansive views of the Rub' al Khali's rolling red sand dunes across the Saudi interior.

🛢️

Ahmadi Oil Fields

Choose the left side for sunset views on evening flights as the sun dips below the horizon over the Arabian Peninsula. During the day, expect significant sun glare for most of the westbound journey.
