Boracay Island
Clear views of the world-famous 4km White Beach and its turquoise waters just minutes after taking off from Kalibo.
Cuyo Archipelago
A group of volcanic islands and coral reefs scattered across the Sulu Sea, looking like emeralds on silk.
Northern Palawan
The dramatic karst limestone formations and hidden lagoons around El Nido are often visible on clear days.
South China Sea Clouds
Beautiful towering cumulus cloud formations frequently develop over these warm tropical waters.
Kuala Lumpur Skyline
On clear northern approaches to KUL, the Petronas Twin Towers and KL Tower are visible in the distant haze.
Sepang Circuit
The distinct looping track of the Sepang International Circuit is clearly visible just moments before touchdown.
For the iconic Boracay view, sit on the right and look out immediately after takeoff. Morning flights (08:00-11:00) offer the best lighting for the turquoise waters of the Sulu Sea without the haze that typically builds up by mid-afternoon. If the plane approaches KUL from the north, this is also the side to see the KL city skyline.

Dense tropical forests and rolling peaks of the Antique and Iloilo provinces visible during the initial ascent.
Sulu Sea Expanse
A vast, deep blue stretch of water separating the central Philippines from the islands of Palawan and Borneo.
Anambas Islands
Remote Indonesian tropical outposts occasionally visible in the distance across the South China Sea.
Johor Shipping Lanes
Clusters of cargo ships and tankers waiting to enter the busy Singapore Strait as you approach the Malay Peninsula.
Selangor Palm Plantations
The geometric patterns of Malaysia's vast oil palm estates stretching towards the horizon during final descent.
Sit here for a more relaxed view focusing on the deep blue sea and the lush interior of Panay. During late afternoon flights, this side provides a stunning view of the sunset over the South China Sea, avoiding the direct glare often found on the northern side of the aircraft.
