DOH → TRV
Which side of the plane to sit from Hamad International Airport (Doha) to Trivandrum International Airport (Trivandrum)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a more diverse landscape, featuring the rugged Omani mountains and a better perspective of the Western Ghats upon arrival in India.
UAE Coastline
Aerial views of the urban expansion along the Northern Emirates and the Musandam Peninsula.
Hajar Mountains
The dramatic and craggy peaks of Northern Oman as the aircraft leaves the Arabian Peninsula.
Gulf of Oman
The transition from the shallow turquoise waters of the Gulf to the deep indigo of the Arabian Sea.
Lakshadweep Sea
Distant views of the coral atolls and turquoise reefs as the flight nears the Indian subcontinent.
Western Ghats
The lush, cloud-covered mountain ranges of South India appearing during the initial descent phase.
On morning flights, the left side receives direct sunlight; keep your window shade partially closed until you cross the coast of India to avoid glare. This side is superior for spotting the transition from the desert of the Middle East to the tropical greenery of Kerala.
Doha Skyline
A spectacular view of the Pearl-Qatar and the West Bay business district shortly after departure.
Shipping Lanes
Heavy maritime traffic including tankers and cargo ships navigating the vital oil routes of the Gulf.
Arabian Sunset
On evening flights, this side provides an unobstructed view of the sun setting over the open ocean.
Kerala Shoreline
The long, palm-fringed coast of the Malabar region visible during the final turn for landing.
Trivandrum Cityscape
A dense canopy of coconut palms punctuated by the red-tiled roofs characteristic of Kerala architecture.
The right side is perfect for late afternoon departures to enjoy the sunset over the Arabian Sea. During the final approach into TRV, this side often provides a clearer view of the famous Kovalam beach area if the flight approaches from the south.
