Which side of the plane to sit from Kuala Lumpur International Airport (Kuala Lumpur) to Kalibo International Airport (Kalibo)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the Malaysian coastline upon departure and a dramatic approach into Panay Island, featuring rugged mountain ranges and tropical coastlines.
Pahang Coastline
Beautiful views of the eastern shores of Malaysia before the flight path heads out over the open sea.
Cuyo Archipelago
Stunning aerial views of remote, pristine islands scattered throughout the northern Sulu Sea.
Mount Madja-as
The highest peak on Panay Island, offering a majestic sight as you descend toward Kalibo.
Panay Plains
Lush green agricultural landscapes and rice paddies characteristic of the Aklan province during final approach.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to capture the golden hour over the Philippine islands. Look for distinct coral reef formations surrounding the Cuyo islands midway through the journey. On clear days, the central mountain range of Panay provides a dramatic backdrop for landing.
Titiwangsa Mountains
The sprawling central mountain range of Peninsular Malaysia visible shortly after takeoff from KUL.
South China Sea
A vast expanse of azure water featuring occasional cargo ships and offshore oil platforms.
Mindoro Coastline
Distant views of the mountainous southern tip of Mindoro Island as the aircraft enters Philippine airspace.
Sibuyan Sea
Sparkling waters dotted with the remote and scenic islands of the Romblon archipelago during the descent.
Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight glare. Keep an eye out for the small white-sand atolls near the Calamian Group during the final hour of the flight. Visibility is best during the dry season from December to May.
