Our Recommendation

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the dramatic mountain ranges as you move north, including the massive reservoirs and the forested Phi Pan Nam Range.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🛫

Don Mueang Airbase

A great perspective of the RTAF military facilities and the golf course located between the runways during takeoff.

⛰️

Phetchabun Mountains

The eastern horizon is dominated by the rugged peaks that separate the central plains from the Isan plateau.

💧

Pa Sak Jolasid Dam

Look for the massive earth-fill dam and its wide reservoir located in the Lopburi province shortly after takeoff.

🏞️

Sirikit Dam Reservoir

One of Thailand's largest man-made lakes, featuring deep blue waters nestled between Uttaradit's mountains.

🌲

Phi Pan Nam Range

The 'Mountain of a Thousand Spirits' provides a stunning backdrop of forested ridges during the final approach into Phrae.

Sit on the right for the most dramatic terrain changes. The transition from flat plains to the northern highlands is most striking here. Afternoon flights provide excellent lighting on the mountains, though it may be warmer. Keep an eye out for the turquoise waters of the reservoirs which stand out against the green forest.

Left Side Highlights
7.0
🏙️

Northern Bangkok Sprawl

Watch the dense urban landscape of Pathum Thani and Rangsit transform into organized agricultural grids.

🌾

Central Plain Paddies

Aerial view of the 'Rice Bowl of Asia' with its complex network of irrigation canals and emerald green fields.

🌊

Chao Phraya River

Occasional distant views of the major river as it meanders through the central lowlands towards the gulf.

🏯

Sukhothai Region

As the flight nears the north, the historic plains surrounding the ancient capital are visible to the west.

🚜

Yom River Basin

Lush seasonal vegetation and local farming communities flanking the river path leading into Phrae.

Morning flights are ideal for the left side to avoid direct sunlight and harsh glares. This side is best for those who enjoy the geometric beauty of Thailand's agricultural heartland and the expansive flat horizon of the central plains.
