Miri City & Canada Hill
A great view of the Miri skyline and the historical Grand Old Lady oil well site shortly after departure.
Baram River Meanders
Observe the dramatic brown river loops of the Baram River snaking through the tropical landscape.
Temburong Bridge
The standout feature: the 30km Sultan Haji Omar 'Ali Saifuddien Bridge spanning Brunei Bay.
Brunei Landscape
Views of the dense greenery of the Belait and Tutong districts, and distant glimpses of Bandar Seri Begawan.
Victoria Harbour
A close-up view of Labuan's main town and the busy industrial shipping port during final approach.
The right side is essential for seeing the Temburong Bridge, which is the longest in Southeast Asia. This route is often served by ATR-72 turboprops; sit either in the very front or very back rows to avoid the high-wing and engine housing blocking your view of the ground. Morning flights offer the best lighting to capture the lush greens of the Sarawak and Brunei jungles.

South China Sea
Expansive views of the turquoise waters and coastal shelf characteristic of the Sarawak basin.
Offshore Oil Platforms
Spot numerous Petronas and Shell oil rigs and support vessels dotted along the maritime horizon.
Lutong Coastline
Aerial perspectives of the sandy beaches and river mouths immediately north of Miri city.
Labuan Marine Park
Clear views of Pulau Kuraman and Pulau Rusukan Besar as the aircraft descends into Labuan.
Choose this side if you prefer a calming view of the ocean. For the best photography of the offshore rigs, a morning flight is recommended when the sun is behind the aircraft. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff as the plane hugs the coastline.
