KWI → DEL
Which side of the plane to sit from Kuwait International Airport (Kuwait) to Indira Gandhi International Airport (Delhi)?
Left Side of the Plane
The left side provides the most dramatic topographical variety, featuring the jagged Zagros mountains of Iran and the expansive textures of the Great Indian Desert in Rajasthan.
Kuwait City Skyline
A clear view of the Kuwait Towers and the urban coastline immediately after departure from KWI.
Zagros Mountains
Sharp, arid ridges and deep folded mountain valleys as the flight traverses Southern Iran.
Thar Desert
The vast, undulating golden sand dunes of the Great Indian Desert visible upon entering Indian airspace.
Rajasthan Plains
A complex patchwork of agricultural fields and rural settlements as the aircraft approaches the capital.
Choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat blur. On morning flights, the sun is positioned on the opposite side, providing perfect front-lighting for the Iranian mountain ranges and the Rajasthani dunes.
Persian Gulf
Deep turquoise waters and heavy shipping traffic in the world's most strategic maritime corridor.
Qeshm Island
The dolphin-shaped island off the coast of Iran, featuring unique salt caves and geological formations.
Rann of Kutch
The shimmering white salt marshes of Gujarat visible on the southern horizon during the mid-flight phase.
Delhi NCR Urban Sprawl
The massive expanse of Gurgaon and the dense urban grid of Delhi during the final approach.
Ideal for evening flights to catch the sunset reflecting off the Arabian Sea. During the winter months, watch for the thick haze layers over Northern India which can create a unique atmospheric 'sea of clouds' effect.
