Which side of the plane to sit from Kyaukpyu Airport (Kyaukpyu) to Yangon International Airport (Yangon)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers breathtaking views of the Bay of Bengal coastline and the expansive Irrawaddy Delta. As you head southeast, the transition from turquoise coastal waters to the intricate maze of river channels provides a more diverse and visually stunning experience than the inland terrain on the left.
