HBX → BLR
Which side of the plane to sit from Hubli Airport (Hubli) to Kempegowda International Airport (Bangalore)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the dramatic rock formations of Chitradurga and the extensive wind turbine farms that dot the central Karnataka landscape.
Gadag Wind Farms
Vast clusters of white wind turbines contrasting against the reddish-brown earth near the start of the journey.
Chitradurga Fort
The 'Seven-Circuited Fort' is visible as a massive, intricate stone structure carved into the rocky hills.
Vani Vilas Sagara
The oldest dam in Karnataka, also known as Mari Kanive, appearing as a deep blue reservoir surrounded by dry hills.
Deccan Traps
Ancient volcanic rock formations and boulder-strewn landscapes typical of the central Karnataka plateau.
Keep your camera ready during the mid-portion of the flight (approx. 20-30 minutes in) to capture the Chitradurga fortifications. During monsoon months (July-Sept), the landscape on this side transforms into a surprisingly vivid green.
Tungabhadra Basin
Aerial views of the river networks and irrigation canals that sustain the agricultural heartland of the state.
Davangere Cityscape
A clear view of the bustling commercial center of Davangere as the flight heads south-east.
Nandi Hills
During the final approach into BLR, this side provides an excellent perspective of the famous Nandi Hills monolith.
Deccan Farmlands
Vibrant geometric patterns of diverse crops ranging from maize to sunflowers depending on the season.
Sit toward the back of the cabin to get the best angle of Nandi Hills during the descent. Morning flights are ideal for this side to keep the sun behind you and avoid heavy window glare while photographing the plains.
