Which side of the plane to sit from Mysore Airport (Mysore) to Kempegowda International Airport (Bangalore)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers the most iconic landmarks, including a direct view of the Mysore Palace shortly after takeoff and the dramatic granite monoliths of Ramanagara mid-flight.
Mysore Palace
A breathtaking view of the Amba Vilas Palace, especially clear if the aircraft takes off towards the east.
Chamundi Hill
The prominent hill overlooking Mysore, featuring the temple towers and the winding ghat road.
Srirangapatna
The historic island town nestled within the Cauvery river branches, featuring ancient forts and temples.
Ramanagara Hills
Iconic massive granite boulders and rugged terrain, famous as the filming location for the movie Sholay.
Bangalore IT Hubs
As you descend, view the sprawling tech parks and high-rises of Electronic City and the southern suburbs.
Sit on the right for the best photographic opportunities of Mysore's heritage sites. Late afternoon flights provide exceptional 'golden hour' lighting on the Ramanagara monoliths. Keep your camera ready immediately after wheels-up for the best palace views.
KRS Dam
Aerial view of the massive Krishna Raja Sagara reservoir and the organized layout of Brindavan Gardens.
Cauvery River
Follow the winding path of the sacred river as it carves through the fertile agricultural plains of Mandya.
Channapatna
The town famous for its wooden toys, visible as a cluster of colorful roofs and busy local markets.
Nandi Hills
On the final approach to BLR from the north, look out for the distant silhouette of these ancient hills.
Choose a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the KRS Dam and the lush greenery of the Cauvery basin. During the monsoon season, the river and reservoirs are particularly striking due to high water levels.
