Which side of the plane to sit from London Heathrow Airport (London) to Singapore Changi Airport (Singapore)?
Right Side of the Plane
The Right Side is preferred primarily for the spectacular approach into Singapore, often featuring the iconic Marina Bay skyline, alongside better views of the Alps and Middle Eastern coastal cities during the night.
Windsor Castle
The historic royal residence is often visible immediately after a westerly takeoff from Heathrow.
European Alps
Stunning views of the Swiss and Italian Alps depending on the specific flight corridor used.
Persian Gulf Lights
The glittering nocturnal cityscapes of Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or Doha during the midpoint of the journey.
Sumatran Islands
Tropical Indonesian islands and the Malacca Strait visible during the initial descent phase.
Marina Bay Skyline
Unrivaled views of Marina Bay Sands and the Singapore CBD if landing from the north on Runway 20L/C.
Secure a 'K' seat for the most iconic views. This side is essential for seeing the Singapore skyline on approach. During the night, watch for the bright flares of oil rigs in the Persian Gulf and the dense clusters of lights from major Middle Eastern metropolitan areas.
Central London
Aerial views of the Thames, The Shard, and the City of London if departing towards the east.
Caucasus Mountains
Dramatic snow-capped peaks situated between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea.
Bay of Bengal
A vast expanse of deep blue water often illuminated by the first rays of the morning sun.
Thai Coastline
The lush green landscapes and turquoise waters of the western Thai peninsula.
Singapore Strait
An incredible view of hundreds of cargo ships anchored in the waters east of the city.
Choose an 'A' seat for the best sunrise views over the Bay of Bengal, which typically occurs 3-4 hours before landing. This side also offers a direct look at the sprawling port facilities of Singapore during the final descent from the north.
