KUL → CGP
Which side of the plane to sit from Kuala Lumpur International Airport (Kuala Lumpur) to Shah Amanat International Airport (Chittagong)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the diverse Southeast Asian coastline, including the islands of the Myeik Archipelago and the lush mountain ranges of Myanmar.
Search flights from KUL to CGP
Langkawi Archipelago
A stunning view of Malaysia's premier island cluster shortly after departure from KUL.
Tenasserim Hills
Lush, jungle-clad mountain ranges forming the natural border between Thailand and Myanmar.
Myeik Archipelago
A breathtaking collection of over 800 pristine islands off the southern coast of Myanmar.
Irrawaddy Delta
The complex, winding distributaries and fertile green plains of Myanmar's main river system.
Rakhine Yoma Mountains
Rugged, forested ridges that rise sharply before the flight crosses into Bangladesh.
Choose the right side for much more geographic variety. For the best views of the Myeik Archipelago, morning flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you, illuminating the turquoise waters. During monsoon season (June-September), cloud cover may obscure the mountains, but coastal features remain visible during the initial and final phases of flight.

Andaman Sea
Uninterrupted views of the deep blue Andaman Sea for the majority of the cruise phase.
Chittagong Port Anchorage
Dozens of large cargo ships and oil tankers anchored in the Bay of Bengal awaiting port entry.
Bay of Bengal Sunset
On evening flights, this side provides front-row seats to spectacular ocean sunsets.
The left side is primarily oceanic. It is best for night flights to avoid glare or for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Bay of Bengal. During descent, look for the industrial maritime activity near the Karnaphuli River mouth.
