Which side of the plane to sit from Ngurah Rai (Bali) International Airport (Denpasar) to Maumere(Wai Oti) Airport (Maumere)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides an unparalleled view of the iconic 'Ring of Fire' volcanoes, including Mount Rinjani and the massive caldera of Mount Tambora, as well as the stunning northern coastline of the Lesser Sunda Islands.
Mount Agung
Glimpse Bali's highest and most sacred peak shortly after takeoff from Denpasar.
Mount Rinjani
The towering 3,726m peak on Lombok island, often surrounded by a sea of clouds.
Mount Tambora
View the enormous 6km-wide caldera of the volcano responsible for the 1815 'year without a summer'.
Komodo National Park
Aerial views of the rugged, dry savannah islands and turquoise coral reefs of the northern Komodo chain.
Labuan Bajo Harbor
Watch the bustling gateway to Komodo with its numerous phinisi boats and islands.
Flores Sea
Vibrant coral atolls and deep blue waters stretching toward the horizon as you follow the Flores coastline.
Book a morning flight (before 10 AM) to see the volcanoes before cloud cover develops. The left side is essential for seeing the massive crater of Tambora on Sumbawa island. Sit mid-cabin or forward to avoid wing obstruction of the deep volcanic craters.
Nusa Penida
See the dramatic limestone cliffs and hidden beaches of Bali's neighboring islands.
South Lombok Coast
The white sand bays and world-class surf breaks around Kuta Lombok are visible from above.
Rinca Island
The southern part of the Komodo National Park, known for its rugged terrain and dragon habitats.
Mount Inerie
The perfect conical shape of this volcano near Bajawa can often be seen in the distance.
Maumere Bay
Beautiful turquoise waters and coastal settlements as the plane descends into Wai Oti.
The right side offers better views of the rugged southern coastlines and the inland mountain ranges of Flores. During the dry season (May to September), the landscape turns a dramatic golden brown, contrasting sharply with the turquoise reefs.
