Mount Mulu
The massive sandstone and limestone peaks of the Mulu massif are clearly visible as the plane climbs.
Baram River Meanders
Incredible bird's-eye view of the extreme oxbow loops and brown waters of the Baram River.
Temburong Bridge
The Sultan Haji Omar 'Ali Saifuddien Bridge, Southeast Asia's longest over-water bridge, crossing Brunei Bay.
Kampong Ayer
The iconic 'Venice of the East' water village system visible on the approach to BWN.
Bandar Seri Begawan
The golden domes of the capital's major mosques can often be spotted during the final descent.
Seat selection on the right is highly recommended for the approach into Brunei. You will get the best view of the Temburong Bridge and the coastal interface. Sit ahead of the wing if possible, as the aircraft for this route (usually an ATR-72) has high wings, but the landing gear can still obstruct some downward views from the mid-cabin.

Gunung Mulu National Park
Uninterrupted views of the ancient UNESCO-listed rainforest canopy immediately after departure.
Tutong River
The winding path of the Tutong River as it snakes through the dense tropical interior of Brunei.
Borneo Cloud Formations
Dramatic tropical cumulus clouds that often gather over the inland mountain ranges.
The left side is best for those who enjoy looking at vast, untouched wilderness. Try to book a morning flight as afternoon convection often leads to heavy cloud cover over the rainforest, obscuring the ground details. Keep your camera ready shortly after takeoff to capture the deep greens of the Sarawak interior.
