Our Recommendation
9.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a front-row seat to the world's most spectacular mountain range, the Himalayas, for the first half of the journey.

Right Side Highlights
9.5
🏔️

Mount Everest

On clear days, the world's highest peak and the Lhotse-Makalu massif are visible to the north shortly after takeoff.

🏔️

Annapurna & Dhaulagiri

Magnificent views of the central and western Himalayan giants as the aircraft tracks westward parallel to the range.

🏙️

New Delhi Region

A distant view of India's capital city and the dense urban cluster of the National Capital Region.

💧

Indus River Basin

The mighty Indus River comes into view as the aircraft enters Pakistani airspace, showing the contrast between water and desert.

🏢

Karachi Skyline

Depending on the landing pattern, views of the dense Karachi metropolis and the Arabian Sea in the distance.

The right side is essential for Himalayan enthusiasts. Book an early morning flight for the clearest weather and the best lighting on the snow-capped peaks. Ensure your seat is not directly over the wing to maintain an unobstructed view of the high-altitude terrain.

Left Side Highlights
6.8
🏙️

Kathmandu Valley

Aerial view of the sprawling capital city and the lush green surrounding hills immediately after takeoff.

🌊

Ganges River System

The intricate network of the Ganges and its tributaries snaking through the fertile plains of Uttar Pradesh.

🏜️

Thar Desert

The golden sands and rolling dunes of the Great Indian Desert as the flight crosses Rajasthan.

🛫

Karachi Outskirts

The industrial hubs and growing urban sprawl on the eastern edge of Karachi during the final approach.

Sit on the left side during evening flights to witness the sunset over the Thar Desert. It is also the better side for viewing the agricultural patterns of the Indo-Gangetic plains without the harsh glare of the northern sun.
