Right Side of the Plane

The right side is generally superior for this route, offering excellent views of major Indian metropolitan areas like Kolkata and a spectacular aerial survey of the UAE coastline and the iconic Doha skyline during the final approach.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏙️

Kolkata Urban Sprawl

The dense and historic architectural layout of West Bengal's capital shortly after departure from Dhaka.

🏞️

Central Indian Rivers

Meandering paths of the Narmada and Tapti river systems cutting through the heart of the subcontinent.

🏝️

The Palm Islands

The world-famous man-made archipelagos of Dubai are often clearly visible if the route parallels the UAE coast.

🏗️

Dubai Skyscrapers

A distant but distinct view of the Burj Khalifa and the concentrated high-rises along Sheikh Zayed Road.

🏙️

Doha West Bay

An unmatched perspective of Qatar's futuristic skyline and The Pearl-Qatar during the descent into Hamad International.

The right side is essential for seeing the urban marvels of the Gulf. For evening arrivals, you will witness the spectacular artificial lights of the UAE and Qatar. Request a seat ahead of the wing to ensure your view of the Palm Jumeirah and the Doha Corniche is not obstructed by the engine or wing structure.

🌿

Sundarbans Mangroves

A sprawling view of the world's largest mangrove forest and the intricate web of the Ganges Delta waterways.

🌊

Odisha Coastline

The shimmering intersection of the Indian subcontinent and the Bay of Bengal visible during the initial cruise phase.

⛰️

Deccan Plateau

The vast, ancient volcanic landscape of central India, featuring unique rock formations and seasonal greenery.

🇴🇲

Musandam Peninsula

The dramatic 'fjords of Arabia' with jagged limestone mountains dropping steeply into the turquoise sea.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. This side is particularly rewarding for enthusiasts of natural geography and coastal transitions. During winter months, the air over the Arabian Sea is exceptionally clear, providing sharp views of the Omani coastline.
