Which side of the plane to sit from Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (Dhaka) to Jessore Airport (Jessore)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers the most iconic views of the Dhaka cityscape upon departure and a stunning perspective of the Padma River's vastness, including the Padma Bridge.
Dhaka Urban Sprawl
Aerial view of the high-density residential areas of Uttara and Mirpur immediately after takeoff.
Padma Bridge
A clear view of the massive 6.15 km multi-purpose bridge spanning the Padma River, a landmark of national pride.
Ganges Delta
The intricate network of distributaries and silt-laden waters characteristic of the world's largest delta.
Faridpur Plains
Vibrant green patchwork of paddy fields and mustard plantations stretching toward the horizon.
For morning flights, the left side is ideal as the sun is behind the aircraft, providing perfect lighting for photography of the Padma Bridge. During the monsoon, this side showcases the dramatic 'char' islands forming in the river.
DAC Airport Layout
A bird's eye view of the Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport runways and the new Terminal 3 construction.
Padma Upstream
View of the river winding from the northwest, showing the massive scale of water movement during the rainy season.
Rural Homesteads
Traditional 'shontosh' or cluster villages surrounded by dense tropical foliage and fruit orchards.
Jessore Cantonment
The organized layout of the Jessore military area and the approach into the historic Jessore Airport.
Select the right side for late afternoon flights to enjoy the sunset over the delta. Look out for the numerous brick kilns with tall chimneys that dot the landscape near the Jessore approach.
