The right side provides a superior vantage point for the iconic Triveni Sangam confluence and the historical landmarks along the Yamuna river corridor.

Right Side Highlights
8.8
πŸ™οΈ

Delhi Cityscape

Excellent views of South Delhi’s urban planning and the greenery of the Ridge area shortly after takeoff.

πŸ•Œ

Yamuna River Trail

The flight path often parallels the winding Yamuna, providing views of the river's historic banks.

🏭

Kanpur Industrial Hub

A clear aerial perspective of the massive tanneries and industrial infrastructure of the 'Manchester of the East'.

β›²

Triveni Sangam

The ultimate highlight: the clearly visible confluence where the pale green Yamuna meets the muddy Ganga.

🏰

Akbar Fort

The massive stone walls of the 16th-century fort standing guard at the tip of the river confluence.

Book a seat forward of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Triveni Sangam during the final approach. Afternoon flights are ideal on this side as the sun will be behind or above the plane, highlighting the color difference between the two rivers.

🌾

Indo-Gangetic Plains

The endless patchwork of emerald-green agricultural fields that define the fertile heart of North India.

πŸ”οΈ

Himalayan Horizon

On extremely clear days, especially post-monsoon, the distant snow-capped peaks of the Uttarakhand Himalayas are visible to the north.

🌊

Upper Ganges

Visuals of the holy Ganges river as it curves through the plains of Uttar Pradesh before meeting the Yamuna.

πŸ™οΈ

Prayagraj Suburbs

A detailed look at the northern urban sprawl and the residential expansion of the city during the final descent.

Sit on this side for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. During the winter months (November to February), keep an eye on the horizon for rare, long-distance views of the Nanda Devi range.
