Which side of the plane to sit from Ngurah Rai (Bali) International Airport (Denpasar) to Achmad Yani Airport (Semarang)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers an unparalleled 'Ring of Fire' experience, featuring a continuous chain of Indonesia's most iconic and active volcanoes spanning from Bali to Central Java.
Mount Agung
Bali's highest and most sacred peak, visible immediately after takeoff from Denpasar.
Ijen & Raung Complex
The rugged volcanic craters of East Java, often seen venting steam shortly after crossing the Bali Strait.
Bromo-Tengger-Semeru
A breathtaking view of Java's highest peak, Semeru, and the massive Bromo caldera landscape.
Mount Lawu
A massive, broad-shouldered stratovolcano situated on the border of East and Central Java.
Mount Merapi & Merbabu
The perfectly conical Merapi, one of the world's most active volcanoes, often visible during the descent into Semarang.
Sit forward of the wing for unobstructed views of the volcanic peaks. Morning flights (06:00–09:00) are highly recommended as clouds typically gather around the mountain summits by midday, obscuring the dramatic craters and plumes.
Bali North Coast
The tranquil coastline of northern Bali, known for its black sand beaches and calm turquoise waters.
Madura Strait
Views of the busy maritime passage between the main island of Java and Madura.
Surabaya Skyline
Distances views of Indonesia's second-largest city and the massive Suramadu Bridge connecting to Madura.
Java Sea Horizon
Expansive sea views that become spectacular during late afternoon 'Golden Hour' flights.
Tanjung Emas Port
The industrial heart of Semarang, visible as the aircraft banks for its final approach into SRG.
Choose the right side for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. During the final approach to SRG, keep an eye out for the unique coastal aquaculture ponds (tambak) that line the northern shore of Semarang.
