Which side of the plane to sit from Dubai International Airport (Dubai) to Kempegowda International Airport (Bangalore)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides the most iconic views of the Dubai skyline, including the Burj Khalifa, and offers superior, glare-free lighting for viewing the lush Western Ghats in India.
Search flights from DXB to BLR
Downtown Dubai
Aerial view of the Burj Khalifa and the dense skyscraper clusters of Dubai shortly after takeoff.
Hajar Mountains
The craggy, desolate peaks of the mountain range crossing the UAE-Oman border.
Arabian Sea
A vast expanse of deep blue water during the mid-flight cruise phase.
Western Ghats
Dramatic emerald-green ridges and valleys as you cross the Indian coastline into Karnataka.
Nandi Hills
The historic hill fortress visible on the northern horizon during the descent into Bangalore.
For day flights, the left side remains in the shade, preventing sun glare on your photos. During the monsoon season (June–September), watch for spectacular cloud formations and waterfalls over the Western Ghats roughly 40 minutes before landing. Seats ahead of the wing are recommended for unobstructed views of the Dubai skyline.

Sightings of massive cargo ships and tankers navigating one of the world's busiest shipping lanes.

Be prepared for significant sun exposure on morning and afternoon flights; keep your window shade down during the cruise to stay cool. This side offers the best view of the coastline if the flight path takes a southerly route over the port city of Mangalore.
