Lengguru Fold Belt
View the unique and rugged geological 'waves' of the Papuan fold belt mountains shortly after leaving Kaimana.
Seram Mountain Range
Dominating the horizon for much of the flight is the massive, cloud-shrouded spine of Seram Island.
Pattimura Approach
An excellent perspective of the northern Ambon coastline and the airfield layout as the plane turns for landing.
The right side is best for seeing the sheer scale of Seram Island. Request a seat toward the front or rear to avoid wing obstruction of the deep blue Ceram Sea. This side is particularly scenic during the golden hour before sunset when the peaks of Seram cast long shadows.

Triton Bay Karst
Just after takeoff from Kaimana, look down at the spectacular limestone karst formations and hidden turquoise lagoons.
Lease Islands
Clear views of Saparua and Haruku islands, surrounded by vibrant coral reefs as you approach the Maluku region.
Ambon Bay Entrance
A view of the narrow entrance to Ambon Bay and the southern Leitimur Peninsula during the final descent.
Sit on the left for the best views of the iconic Triton Bay karst landscape immediately after departure. Morning flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you, illuminating the tropical island colors without glare. Keep your camera ready during the first 10 minutes of flight.
