KWICOK

Our Recommendation
8.7

Right Side of the Plane

The right side provides the most dramatic views, including the rugged Hajar Mountains of Oman and a front-row seat to the stunning Malabar coastline during the final approach into Kochi.

Right Side Highlights
8.7
🏙️

Emirati Coastline

Aerial views of the urban architecture of the UAE or Muscat depending on the specific air corridor.

🏜️

Hajar Mountains

The sharp, rocky ridges of the Al Hajar range in Oman before the flight heads over the Arabian Sea.

🏖️

Malabar Coast

The continuous stretch of golden beaches and coconut groves along the Indian shoreline.

🚢

Kochi Port and Islands

Views of Willingdon Island, the container terminal, and massive ships entering the harbor.

🌅

Arabian Sea Sunset

Perfect positioning for sunset views over the horizon on evening flights from Kuwait.

The right side is ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset over the Arabian Sea. As the plane descends into Kochi (COK), the right side offers the clearest views of the coastline. During landing, look for the Chinese fishing nets near the coast if the flight path follows the shoreline closely.

Left Side Highlights
6.8
🌊

Persian Gulf Expanse

Deep blue views of the Gulf waters shortly after departing the Kuwaiti coastline.

⛰️

Western Ghats Range

The lush, mist-covered peaks of the Sahyadri mountains visible inland during the descent.

🌴

Kerala Backwaters

A bird's-eye view of the intricate network of canals and lagoons near Alappuzha before landing.

☁️

Monsoon Clouds

Spectacular towering cumulus formations often seen during the summer monsoon months.

For the best experience on the left side, choose a seat ahead of the wing to clearly see the Western Ghats mountain range during the final 30 minutes of flight. If flying during the day, be aware that the sun will be on this side for the initial leg of the journey, which may cause glare.
