JAIHYD

Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the ancient Aravalli Range immediately after takeoff and provides better proximity to the scenic reservoirs and lakes surrounding Hyderabad during the final approach.

⛰️

Aravalli Range

Stunning views of the weathered peaks of the Aravallis, one of the world's oldest fold mountain systems.

🌾

Malwa Plateau

The transition from the arid Rajasthan desert to the fertile, volcanic black soil of the Malwa region.

🌊

Narmada River Gorges

The crossing of the holy Narmada River, often visible with deep limestone gorges and temple towns along its banks.

🏔️

Satpura Ridges

Dense forest canopies and undulating hills of the Satpura range as the flight progresses into Central India.

💧

Osman Sagar Reservoir

A clear view of the historic Gandipet lake and its surrounding greenery during the descent into Hyderabad.

Sit on the right side for morning flights to avoid the harsh direct glare of the sun. This side is also preferred for seeing the sunset over the Deccan Plateau on late afternoon departures. Watch for the distinct change in soil color from brown to deep black as you enter Madhya Pradesh.
