Which side of the plane to sit from Indira Gandhi International Airport (Delhi) to Singapore Changi Airport (Singapore)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side provides superior views of the Malay Peninsula and a more dramatic approach over the shipping lanes and Singaporean skyline.
Himalayan Vistas
On clear winter days, look back to see the distant snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas.
Eastern Ghats
The rugged mountain ridges of Andhra Pradesh as you track toward the coast.
Phuket Coastline
Clear views of the Thai coast and the distinctive limestone formations of the region.
Riau Archipelago
The scattered islands of Indonesia, including Batam, during the descent into Singapore.
Singapore Skyline
Iconic views of the Singapore Flyer and Marina Bay Sands on a standard approach.
The right side is premier for the final descent; flights often perform a 'U' turn over the Riau Islands, offering views of both Indonesia and the Singapore city center. Afternoon flights will face the sun, so polarized sunglasses are recommended to see through the haze.
Gangetic Plains
Lush green agricultural landscapes of North India shortly after takeoff.
Mahanadi Delta
The intricate network of river distributaries meeting the Bay of Bengal near Odisha.
Andaman Islands
Aerial view of remote, emerald islands and surrounding coral reefs in the Andaman Sea.
Strait of Malacca
A dense concentration of container ships waiting to enter the Port of Singapore.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh tropical sun. The Andaman Islands are the star attraction here, appearing roughly 3 hours into the flight. Keep an eye out for the Nicobar chain further south if the flight path shifts.
