COKMCT

Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

The right side is generally superior as it provides a better angle for viewing the dramatic Omani coastline and the jagged Al Hajar Mountains during the final approach into Muscat.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
🌴

Malabar Coastline

Aerial views of Kerala's lush greenery and backwaters immediately after departing COK.

📍

Ras al Hadd

The easternmost point of the Arabian Peninsula, where the sea meets the rugged desert terrain.

🏔️

Al Hajar Mountains

Spectacular views of the dark, craggy limestone peaks that rise sharply from the Omani coast.

🏙️

Muscat Cityscape

Clear views of the white-washed buildings and Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque during the descent into MCT.

For the best experience, choose a seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat haze. The mountain views are most dramatic during the final 30 minutes of the flight; morning flights offer the best lighting on the rock formations without the harsh glare.

Left Side Highlights
6.2
🌊

Arabian Sea Horizon

Vast, uninterrupted views of the deep blue Arabian Sea for the majority of the cruise phase.

🏜️

Al Wusta Coast

The first glimpse of the Arabian Peninsula's desert coastline as you enter Omani airspace.

🌇

Arabian Sunset

On evening flights, this side offers front-row seats to the sun dipping below the ocean horizon.

On daytime flights, be prepared for significant solar glare as the sun tracks along the southern side of the aircraft. This side is ideal for sunset photography during late afternoon departures from Cochin.
