Satpura Range
View the rolling hills of the Satpura range shortly after leaving the Jabalpur region.
Godavari River
Cross over the sacred Godavari river near the city of Nashik as you head southwest.
Navi Mumbai
Observe the planned urban sprawl and infrastructure of Navi Mumbai during the initial descent.
Thane Creek
See the massive bridges connecting the mainland to the island city of Mumbai.
Mumbai Skyline
Unparalleled views of the south Mumbai skyscrapers and the coastline on final approach.
Opt for an early morning flight to catch the sun rising over the Western Ghats. During the monsoon (June-Sept), the transition from the dry Deccan plateau to the lush green coast is spectacular. Sit ahead or behind the wing for unobstructed ground views, especially during the landing bank over the sea.

Narmada River
Catch a glimpse of the winding Narmada river near Jabalpur right after takeoff.
Western Ghats Escarpment
Dramatic views of the steep cliffs of the Sahyadri mountains during the descent phase.
Kalsubai Peak
Look for the highest point in Maharashtra, often visible to the north of the flight path.
Sanjay Gandhi National Park
A massive green lung visible on the right as the plane aligns with the runway.
Tansa & Vaitarna Lakes
Spot the major reservoirs that provide water to the city of Mumbai nestled in the hills.
The right side is excellent for spotting the rugged topography of the Western Ghats and the dense forests of the National Park. In the late afternoon, the sun will be on this side, which might cause glare, so polarized glasses are recommended. Watch for the sudden transition from forest to dense urban housing just before touchdown.
