Which side of the plane to sit from Indira Gandhi International Airport (Delhi) to Jammu Airport (Jammu)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular front-row seat to the Greater Himalayas and the Dhauladhar range throughout the journey north.
Search flights from DEL to IXJ
Himalayan Range
Stunning panoramic views of the snow-capped peaks of the Greater Himalayas in the distance.
Shivalik Foothills
The undulating green ridges that mark the transition from the plains to the high mountains.
Beas and Ravi Rivers
Deep river valleys and shimmering water bodies carving through the mountainous terrain.
Trikuta Mountains
The sacred mountain housing the Vaishno Devi shrine becomes visible during the descent into Jammu.
The right side is significantly more scenic. For the best experience, book an early morning flight when the sun illuminates the Himalayan peaks from the east. Keep your camera ready about 20-30 minutes after departure from Delhi as the high altitude provides a clear horizon of the snow line.

Delhi Metropolis
Expansive aerial view of the capital's grid and historic monuments during takeoff.
Punjab Plains
A patchwork quilt of agricultural fields and irrigation canals spanning Haryana and Punjab.
Sutlej River
Aerial crossing of one of the major five rivers of the Punjab region.
Choose the left side for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. It provides a clearer view of the vast agricultural heartland of North India without the atmospheric haze often found looking toward the mountains.
