Aravalli Range
The ancient fold mountains of Rajasthan are visible shortly after the flight reaches cruising altitude.
Narmada River
Cross over one of India's most significant westward-flowing rivers near the border of Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra.
Western Ghats Escarpment
Parallel views of the UNESCO-listed Sahyadri mountains stretching across the horizon for a significant portion of the flight.
The Nilgiris
The 'Blue Mountains' provide a stunning, verdant backdrop as the plane descends into the Coimbatore valley.
Deccan Farmlands
A geometric patchwork of vibrant agricultural fields across the states of Maharashtra and Karnataka.
This side is essential for the scenic descent. The Nilgiri Hills are most prominent 15-20 minutes before landing. On afternoon flights, the sun will be on this side, so keep your window shade down until the descent begins to see the mountains in soft light.
