Which side of the plane to sit from Lombok International Airport (Praya) to Ngurah Rai (Bali) International Airport (Denpasar)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers an unparalleled view of the massive volcanic peaks of both Lombok and Bali, which are the primary highlights of this short transit.
Mount Rinjani
Lombok's massive 3,726-meter active volcano, visible shortly after takeoff with its majestic peak towering over the island.
Lombok North Coast
A bird's-eye view of the lush, green northern coastline and the agricultural terraces that slope down toward the sea.
Mount Agung
Bali's highest and holiest peak, providing a dominant and awe-inspiring sight as the plane approaches the island.
Sanur Coastline
The beautiful white sand beaches and protective coral reefs of Sanur visible just before the turn into Ngurah Rai.
For the most dramatic experience, book a morning flight to see Mount Rinjani and Mount Agung clearly before tropical clouds typically accumulate around the peaks by midday. Sit in the front of the cabin to avoid wing obstruction and engine heat haze, which can distort your photos of the volcanic craters.
Gili Islands
A stunning aerial view of Gili Trawangan, Meno, and Air nestled in the turquoise waters off the northwest coast of Lombok.
Lombok Strait
Crossing the deep-water channel that serves as the Wallace Line, the biological boundary between Asian and Australian fauna types.
Nusa Penida
The rugged limestone cliffs and dramatic coastline of Nusa Penida, including the famous Kelingking Beach area.
Benoa Harbor
The bustling maritime gateway of Bali with its complex network of docks and traditional boats visible during the final descent.
Focus on the southern horizon to spot the iconic 'T-Rex' shape of Nusa Penida's Kelingking beach. Morning flights are ideal as the sun is behind you, illuminating the turquoise reefs and the deep blue of the Lombok Strait without glare.
