Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a more diverse range of geographical landmarks, including the potential for distant Himalayan views, the unique salt marshes of Gujarat, and the spectacular mountain approach into Muscat.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

Himalayan Horizon

On exceptionally clear days, the distant white peaks of the Himalayas can be seen far to the north during the initial cruise.

🧂

Rann of Kutch

The surreal, vast white salt desert of Gujarat visible as the flight departs the Indian coastline.

⛰️

Al Hajar Mountains

The rugged, dark limestone peaks of northern Oman that rise dramatically as you descend into Muscat.

🏖️

Gulf of Oman Coast

The turquoise waters and rocky coves of the Omani coastline during the final approach to MCT.

🏜️

Thar Desert Edge

The transition from the fertile plains of the Ganges to the arid landscapes of Northwest India.

The right side is highly recommended for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. Watch for the 'White Rann' of Kutch approximately 2.5 to 3 hours into the flight. Ensure you have a window seat for the descent, as the Al Hajar mountains provide one of the most scenic airport approaches in the Middle East.

Left Side Highlights
6.7
🌊

Bengal Delta

Intricate networks of rivers and the lush greenery of the world's largest delta immediately after takeoff.

🏙️

Central Indian Cities

Aerial views of major urban centers in Odisha and Chhattisgarh as the flight traverses the subcontinent.

🚢

Arabian Sea Transit

Deep blue oceanic views with the possibility of spotting large tankers on major shipping lanes.

🌅

Evening Sunset

On late afternoon flights, this side provides front-row seats to the sun dipping below the ocean horizon.

Select a seat on the left if you are flying in the late afternoon to witness a sunset over the Arabian Sea. Early in the flight, focus on the ground to see the massive river systems of Bangladesh merging before they reach the Bay of Bengal.
