Our Recommendation
8.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a continuous, breathtaking panorama of the snow-capped Garhwal Himalayas and the rugged Shivalik range throughout the first half of the flight.

Left Side Highlights
8.8
🏔️

Mussoorie & Shivaliks

Aerial view of the 'Queen of Hills' perched on the ridge and the emerald green Shivalik foothills immediately after takeoff.

❄️

Greater Himalayan Range

On clear days, major peaks like Kedarnath, Badrinath, and Trisul are visible as white silhouettes against the northern horizon.

🌲

Terai Belt Forests

Dense forest patches of the Rajaji and Corbett periphery regions transition into the agricultural heartland.

🌊

Ramganga River

The winding path of the Ramganga river as it snakes through the plains of western Uttar Pradesh.

🏙️

Bareilly Skyline

The urban sprawl of Bareilly city and its surrounding industrial clusters visible during the mid-flight cruise.

Book an 'A' seat for the best Himalayan views. For maximum clarity, choose early morning flights (6 AM - 9 AM) when the air is least hazy. Post-monsoon months (October-November) offer the sharpest visibility of the snow-capped peaks. Keep your camera ready within the first 15 minutes of departure from Dehradun.

Right Side Highlights
5.5
🛕

Haridwar & Ganges

View of the holy city of Haridwar and the Ganges River emerging from the mountains into the plains.

🌾

Indo-Gangetic Mosaic

The mesmerizing geometric patterns of the fertile agricultural fields that define the landscape of North India.

🛣️

Purvanchal/Lucknow Expressways

The modern highway infrastructure connecting the major hubs of Uttar Pradesh visible during the descent.

💧

Gomti River Winding

The Gomti river becomes prominent as the flight approaches Lucknow, marking the entrance into the capital city.

🏟️

Ekana Stadium

The distinct circular structure of the international cricket stadium often visible during the final approach into LKO.

Seats on the right (usually 'F') are better for afternoon or evening flights to avoid direct sun glare. This side offers better views of the Ganges shortly after takeoff. Watch for the intricate canal systems that irrigate the plains of Uttar Pradesh during the descent into Lucknow.
