Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side provides a more iconic experience, featuring major river crossings and the potential to see the Taj Mahal and the Yamuna River during the approach to Delhi.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌊

Godavari River

Expansive views of South India's longest river crossing shortly after departure from Hyderabad.

🏞️

Narmada River

A distinct silver ribbon cutting through the dense forests and plains of Madhya Pradesh.

🏛️

Taj Mahal

On clear days, the white marble monument is visible next to the Yamuna River during the descent into Delhi.

🛣️

Yamuna Expressway

The long, straight concrete artery connecting Agra to Greater Noida clearly visible from above.

🏙️

Delhi Skyline

Panoramic views of the sprawling capital and suburban hubs like Noida and Ghaziabad.

Sit on the right for the best chance to see the Taj Mahal near Agra during descent. Morning flights are recommended to avoid the smog and haze that often obscure the Delhi NCR landscape in the afternoons.

🪨

Deccan Plateau

Unique granite boulder formations and rocky terrain of Telangana visible shortly after takeoff.

⛰️

Satpura Range

Rugged mountainous terrain marking the geographic transition into central India.

🧱

Gwalior Fort

Distant high-altitude views of the historic sandstone fort on the western horizon.

🌄

Aravalli Hills

The ancient fold mountains appearing as low ridges as the aircraft enters the NCR region.

Ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the western horizon. During the descent, keep an eye out for the rocky ridges of the Aravalli range, which are most prominent on this side.
