Our Recommendation
8.5

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers panoramic views of the distant Himalayan peaks and Hindu Kush during the early flight stages, plus the intricate river networks of the Ganges-Brahmaputra Delta and the lush coastline of the Malay Peninsula.

Left Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

Hindu Kush and Karakoram

Distant but majestic views of the northern mountain ranges as the flight heads southeast from Peshawar.

🌊

Indus River Basin

The massive, winding Indus River system and the green agricultural belt of the Punjab region.

🏔️

Himalayan Horizon

On clear days, the high snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas are visible far to the north across the Indian plains.

🌾

Ganges Delta

The complex, emerald-green web of the world's largest river delta over West Bengal and Bangladesh.

🏝️

Andaman Sea Islands

Small, turquoise-ringed islands near the Thai and Myanmar coastlines as you cross the Bay of Bengal.

Book a left-side window for morning flights to avoid the direct southern sun. This side is superior for spotting the high mountains to the north during the first 90 minutes. Keep your camera ready as you approach the Malay Peninsula for stunning coastal views and limestone formations.

Right Side Highlights
6.2
🏙️

Delhi NCR Region

Vast urban sprawl and landmark city grids as the flight bypasses the Indian capital.

🚜

Central Indian Plains

A patchwork of diverse agricultural land and rural settlements across the heart of India.

🌊

Bay of Bengal

Deep blue oceanic views for a significant portion of the mid-flight journey.

🚢

Strait of Malacca

One of the busiest shipping lanes in the world, filled with hundreds of cargo ships near the KUL approach.

🌴

Sumatran Horizon

The distant outline of Sumatra, Indonesia, visible across the water during the final descent.

The right side is excellent for night flights to see the glowing city lights of Northern and Central India. Be aware that during daytime flights, the sun will be on this side, which can cause significant glare and heat. Watch for the heavy maritime traffic in the Malacca Strait just before landing.
