HYDSIN

Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers a superior view of the Indian coastline during departure and provides a better perspective of the Malaysian coastline and the approach into Changi Airport, especially during northern arrivals.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Hyderabad Skyline

Clear views of the Charminar area and the expanding HITEC city urban sprawl shortly after takeoff.

🌊

Andaman Archipelago

Aerial perspective of the northern Andaman Islands, featuring turquoise waters and dense tropical forests.

⛰️

Malay Peninsula

Views of the rugged Titiwangsa Mountain Range running through the heart of Peninsular Malaysia.

🏢

Singapore Urban Core

On a northern approach (Runway 20), you get a distant but clear view of the Marina Bay Sands and CBD.

For day flights, the left side avoids the harshest southern sun. During the final 20 minutes of flight, keep your camera ready for the intricate coastline of Johor, Malaysia, before crossing the Johor Strait into Singapore. If the flight is at night, the left side offers the best view of the brightly lit Malaysian towns along the coast.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
🌾

Krishna River Delta

The intricate patchwork of paddy fields and river distributaries as the plane leaves the Indian mainland.

🏝️

Nicobar Islands

Views of the remote and pristine southern island chains of the Bay of Bengal.

🌋

Sumatra Tip

The northernmost tip of Aceh, Indonesia, is often visible across the Malacca Strait on clear days.

🚢

Singapore Strait Vessels

An incredible view of hundreds of cargo ships and tankers anchored in the world's busiest shipping lane.

🏝️

Riau Archipelago

The Indonesian islands of Batam and Bintan are clearly visible during the descent into Changi.

The right side is spectacular for night arrivals; the sea of lights from the ships in the Singapore Strait is a unique sight. However, during afternoon flights, this side can be very hot due to direct sun exposure. Watch for the dramatic change from the deep blue of the Bay of Bengal to the busy, emerald-green waters of the Malacca Strait.
