Bangkok Cityscape
Superb views of the Chao Phraya River winding through the dense urban sprawl of the capital immediately after takeoff.
Isthmus of Kra
The narrowest part of the Malay Peninsula, revealing the lush, mountainous spine shared by Thailand and Myanmar.
Singapore Strait
Observe hundreds of cargo ships and tankers anchored or transiting through one of the world's busiest shipping lanes.
Belitung Island
Identify the bright turquoise fringes and white sand beaches of this island known for its unique granite rock formations.
East Java Volcanoes
The flight highlight: the towering silhouettes of Mount Bromo and Mount Semeru rising above the clouds on the horizon.
Request a window seat away from the wing for unobstructed views of the Java volcanoes. This side is also best for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Java Sea. Keep your camera ready as you pass Singapore to capture the scale of global maritime trade.
