Which side of the plane to sit from Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (Dhaka) to Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (Mumbai)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Sundarbans mangroves shortly after takeoff and a more dramatic descent over the Western Ghats and North Mumbai's urban landscape.
Sundarbans
Witness the world's largest mangrove forest and its labyrinth of waterways shortly after departing Dhaka.
Kolkata Cityscape
Catch a glimpse of the Hooghly River and the sprawling urban density of West Bengal's capital.
Hirakud Reservoir
Identify the massive expanse of water held by one of the world's longest earthen dams in Odisha.
Western Ghats
Admire the dramatic green ridges and steep escarpments of the Sahyadri range during the descent.
Sanjay Gandhi National Park
See the rare sight of a massive forest situated entirely within the boundaries of a metropolis.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset over the Arabian Sea. Keep your camera ready within the first 20 minutes for the Sundarbans and the last 20 minutes for the Western Ghats. During monsoon season (June to September), this side offers breathtaking views of waterfalls along the mountain ridges.
Mahanadi Delta
View the intricate network of river channels and estuaries emptying into the Bay of Bengal.
Deccan Plateau
Observe the vast, rugged terrain of the ancient volcanic plateau across Central India.
Godavari River
Cross over the winding path and wide banks of one of the longest river systems in South Asia.
South Mumbai Coast
Potential views of the Arabian Sea coastline and Mumbai's iconic southern skyline on final approach.
Choose the left side for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side is better for spotting the expansive river deltas of Odisha and the shipping lanes of the Arabian Sea during the final descent into BOM.
