Which side of the plane to sit from Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (Mumbai) to Vishakhapatnam Airport (Vishakhapatnam)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior visual experience, featuring the dramatic peaks of the Western Ghats shortly after takeoff and the stunning coastline of the Bay of Bengal upon arrival.
Sahyadri Mountains
Spectacular views of the Western Ghats, including deep valleys and peaks near the Lonavala and Khandala regions.
Deccan Plateau
The iconic red soil and patchwork agricultural fields of the interior Indian peninsula.
Godavari Delta
Lush green paddy fields and the sprawling river network as the flight nears the Andhra Pradesh coast.
Bay of Bengal
The expansive blue waters of the bay become visible as the aircraft maneuvers for its final approach.
Dolphin's Nose
Visakhapatnam's most famous landmark, a massive rocky headland shaped like a dolphin's snout, visible just before landing.
Sit on the right for the most iconic views. On evening flights, you will catch a beautiful sunset over the Western Ghats. Watch for the 'Dolphin's Nose' hill and the Vizag Port area during the final five minutes of the flight.
Northern Mumbai Suburbs
Aerial views of the dense urban sprawl, Thane Creek, and the northern industrial hubs during the initial climb.
Upper Godavari Basin
The meandering path of the Godavari River as it flows through the fertile plains of Maharashtra.
Northern Eastern Ghats
Rugged, mist-covered ridges of the Eastern Ghats visible during the start of the descent into Visakhapatnam.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. During the monsoon season (June–September), this side offers views of vibrant green landscapes and cloud formations over the Deccan Plateau.
