Which side of the plane to sit from Ngurah Rai (Bali) International Airport (Denpasar) to Moses Kilangin Airport (Timika)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side offers a stunning combination of Bali's highest peaks at departure and the snow-capped glaciers of the Sudirman Range in Papua upon arrival.
Mount Agung
Witness the majestic 3,031-meter summit of Bali's most sacred volcano towering over the clouds immediately after takeoff.
Komodo National Park
Aerial views of the northern islands of the park, including the iconic Gili Lawa and surrounding vibrant coral reefs.
Flores Sea Atolls
Crystal clear turquoise rings and deep blue ocean trenches as the flight tracks north of the Lesser Sunda Islands.
Puncak Jaya (Carstensz Pyramid)
On clear mornings, spot the rare glaciers of the highest peak in Oceania as you descend toward the Papuan coast.
Book an early morning flight for the clearest visibility of Puncak Jaya before clouds build up over the mountains. The morning sun will be behind you, providing excellent lighting for photography of Bali's coast and the Papuan glaciers.
Mount Rinjani
A direct view of Lombok's massive stratovolcano and its breathtaking Segara Anak crater lake shortly after departure.
Mount Tambora
Fly past the enormous six-kilometer-wide caldera on Sumbawa island, the site of the world's largest recorded eruption.
Flores Volcanic Chain
An incredible sequence of active volcanoes lining the southern horizon, including Egon and Lewotobi.
Arafura Coastline
Observe the winding river deltas and the dense, pristine rainforest canopy where the land meets the Arafura Sea.
The right side is ideal for volcano enthusiasts as it tracks closer to the volcanic spine of Indonesia. Use a polarized lens filter to cut through atmospheric haze when photographing the large calderas of Sumbawa and Flores.
