HYDAMD

Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers superior views of the expansive lakes near Hyderabad during departure and the most iconic views of the Sabarmati Riverfront when approaching Ahmedabad from the south.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🌊

Osman Sagar & Himayat Sagar

Stunning views of the twin reservoirs that provide water to Hyderabad, visible shortly after takeoff.

⛰️

Deccan Plateau Terrain

Unique aerial perspectives of the craggy rock formations and red soil typical of the Telangana region.

🏙️

Vadodara Cityscape

As the flight heads north into Gujarat, the left side often catches a glimpse of the expanding Vadodara metropolitan area.

🛣️

NE-1 Expressway

The well-defined National Expressway 1 connecting Vadodara and Ahmedabad is clearly visible during the descent.

🏞️

Sabarmati Riverfront

Excellent views of the developed river banks and the urban skyline of Ahmedabad during the final approach.

Book a window seat ahead of the wing for unobstructed views of the water bodies. On morning flights, this side is ideal as it faces away from the direct sun. During the monsoon (July-September), the landscape is remarkably green and the reservoirs are at their fullest.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🏙️

Hyderabad Urban Sprawl

Aerial views of the 'City of Pearls' including high-rise developments in the Gachibowli and HITEC City areas.

💧

Narmada River Crossing

Look for the massive, wide riverbed of the Narmada near Bharuch, a major geographic landmark in Western India.

🏗️

Industrial Hubs

Clear views of the massive industrial complexes near Ankleshwar and the chemical belts of southern Gujarat.

🌊

Tapi River

A secondary river crossing near Surat that marks the transition into the fertile plains of Gujarat.

🏟️

Narendra Modi Stadium

Depending on the landing pattern, you may catch a glimpse of the world's largest cricket stadium in Motera.

The right side is better for afternoon flights to avoid the glare of the setting sun. Keep your camera ready about 45 minutes into the flight for the major river crossings. This side provides a better perspective of the dense urban layout of eastern Ahmedabad if the flight approaches from the north.
