Samut Prakan Coastline
Aerial view of the Chao Phraya River mouth and the industrial landscape of the Bangkok outskirts.
Khao Sam Roi Yot
Dramatic limestone peaks rising abruptly from the coastal marshes in Prachuap Khiri Khan.
Songkhla Lake
Thailand's largest natural lake, featuring a unique lagoon system and fishing villages.
Pattani Bay
The scenic curve of the Pattani coastline and the Laem Pho sandy spit just before arrival.
Budo-Su-ngai Padi
Lush tropical rainforests of the mountain range that borders the Narathiwat province.
The right side is significantly more scenic. Sit in a window seat to track the transition from the salt pans of Samut Sakhon to the high peaks of Nakhon Si Thammarat. For afternoon flights, the sun will be on this side, so bring sunglasses or expect some glare. Watch for the 'Golden Buddha' at Wat Khao Kong as you descend into Narathiwat.

Gulf of Thailand
Expansive views of the turquoise waters and numerous commercial fishing vessels dotting the sea.
Distant Islands
On clear days, the outlines of Ko Samui and Ko Phangan are visible on the horizon during the mid-flight segment.
Morning Horizon
Early flights offer a stunning sunrise over the open ocean, creating deep orange and purple reflections on the water.
Deep Sea Shipping
Major shipping lanes for tankers and cargo ships heading towards the Port of Bangkok.
Choose the left side for morning flights to witness the sunrise over the Gulf. This side is generally quieter with less land-based distraction, ideal for those wanting a peaceful view of the open sea. During the final approach into NAW, look for the white sandy beaches of the Narathiwat coastline appearing as the plane banks.
