Sunset Horizon
During late afternoon flights, this side provides an unobstructed view of the sun dipping into the ocean.

Lush Greenery
Dense canopies of coconut palms and rubber plantations that create a vibrant green carpet below.
Bharathappuzha River
Cross the wide, sandy bed of Kerala's second-longest river near the mid-point of the journey.
Thrissur Skyline

The right side is best for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. Keep an eye out for the Western Ghats during clear weather, though they are often shrouded in mist or clouds during the monsoon season (June to September).
