Which side of the plane to sit from Dabolim Airport (Goa) to Hamad International Airport (Doha)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the dramatic Musandam Peninsula fjords, the glittering UAE coastline including Dubai's skyline, and the iconic West Bay skyline of Doha during the final approach.
North Goa Panorama
A bird's-eye view of Panaji, the Mandovi River, and the famous northern beach stretch of Calangute and Baga.
Musandam Peninsula
The rugged, 'Norway of the Middle East' fjords and limestone peaks of Oman's northern tip.
UAE Coastline
Distant views of the Dubai skyline, including the Burj Khalifa, and the intricate Palm Jumeirah islands.
Doha Skyline
Premier views of the West Bay skyscrapers, The Pearl-Qatar, and Lusail City during the approach to Hamad International.
Port of Doha
Clear views of the bustling maritime activity and the dhow harbor just before touchdown.
The right side is essential for seeing major landmarks. For daytime flights, look for the stark contrast between the turquoise Gulf waters and the Musandam mountains. On night flights, the UAE and Qatari coastal cities provide a brilliant light show. Sit well ahead of or behind the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Doha skyline.
South Goa Coastline
Vibrant views of South Goa's white-sand beaches like Colva and Benaulim immediately after takeoff.
Arabian Sea Expanse
Uninterrupted views of the deep blue Arabian Sea, offering spectacular sunset horizons on evening flights.
Al Wakrah Stadium
Spot the futuristic Zaha Hadid-designed stadium as the aircraft prepares for its final descent into Doha.
Choose the left side for afternoon or evening departures to witness a stunning sunset over the Arabian Sea. During landing, this side often provides a view of the Qatari desert landscape and southern industrial hubs like Mesaieed.
